Civil Litigation - Private

Comment #: 26681
Rating:2.0

Comments:
One-sided in her rulings and does not apply the law. Worse, she seems to use the bench to settle past scores from her lawyering days, resulting in extreme bias against certain attorneys or law firms that she encountered when she was practicing law, without regard to the individuals (and their clients) before her. Sadly, if you are assigned this judge, it might be worth researching the history of the attorneys and firms that she encountered in her past private practice so you don't wind up suffering due to a personal vendetta of hers. This is someone who abuses the power of the court and should never have been appointed to the bench.
