This judge does not deserve to be on a family court bench. She consistently rules in favor of the abuser and rules with bias and not reality. This lady holds too much power for vulnerable children. That’s clearly not what court is about.

I have observed this judge fail at multiple procedural law issues. In Family Court, a young lady moved out of the marital residence from her husband due to domestic violence. She left her son with the father to keep a roof over his head because she was temporarily unable to financially support the child.
Once she was able to get on her feet, her husband refused to allow access to their son. She figured that upon filing for the divorce the judge would make sure there was joint parenting. After filing, the judge refused to intervene and do the right thing. This judge is not qualified as a Family Court judge. What kind of judge refuses a woman access to her child without cause? This is poor judgment by judge Wahlin. It makes you question the moral ability of that position.
