The worst of the worst.
The worst of the worst. Blatantly stupid and biased. Will sabotage a case with deliberately wrong jury instructions and will falsely ACCUSE plaintiff's counsel for litigating a case where a government official is a defendant. The sheer stupidity of this person is truly conscious shocking. Advice: Make a record and appeal. Hopefully the appellate courts will get it right. Note: She will openly conspire with the opposing counsel and even make frivoulous and false disciplinary accusations against any plaintiff's counsel who dares cross-examine a police officer. Yes, she--the Judge--will make obviously false accusations against counsel even though you will be able to prove that she is lying. She lies worse than the crooked cops on the TV shows. She will literally make up false allegations to the disciplinary board if you cross-examine a cop. Don't believe me, wait until this bozo is assigned to your case and then come back and comment. This one is a special kind of stupid. However, the good part is that she is stupid so you can easily defend yourself from her idiocy. Just make your record, stay calm, and try not to be shocked by the utter absurdity. She is the white version of Genence Brinkley. Dumb and ridiculous but with a lighter skin tone. She will let opposing counsel make the most ridiculous arguments and will find them persuasive, despite the law. And if you or your client is black, pray to God. This one is an open you-know-what. Gotta see to believe it. However, she is nice and pleasant if you plead guilty or otherwise rollover.
