Judge O'Rane is fair and compassionate. She seeks to find the truth by asking questions and actively listening to each side. She demonstrates patience in difficult situations. I was so impressed by her overall kind demeanor that she deserves notable praise.

I would give her a negative number if I could. She doesn't like women of her own color and she assumes without looking at the facts. She needs to go.

This woman is a sick individual, she needs to be removed from this position immediately. She is putting people, especially children’s lives at risk. She can’t control herself or her emotions at all and does NOT have the temperament or even knowledge to be in that type of position. This women needs to removed now and possibly put in prison.

She marked things in the RO that were contradictory or made no sense as if she was just in a hurry and didnt care. She always will side with my husband even though what he requests makes no sense and denies all of my paperwork whenever I've had an attorney look over it. She doesn't seem to care that my spouse made my daughters and I homeless in 2 states because he was upset with me for not wanting to be with him. She didnt' care that he lied about "not" assaulting me but believed that I assaulted him for no reason instead of it being in self defense like it was. She is highly unprofessional and I'm hoping that there is something that can be done to get a new judge because I don't want her reveiwing anything involving my family again... does she even have a family and kids of her own to understand how her decisions affect peoples lives???

I have been following up what`s going on in the GREATER LOS ANGELES counties including but not limited to LA, RIVERSIDE, ORANGE,.., etc. regarding the Homeless people "mostly men spells "M E N" I have a great solution for you to help you solving this problem which ALL of you struggle to resolve it because of your stupid legal systems throwing more men out of their families under the stupid authority law called "restraining order" and you need to remove this woman called "Gail O`Rane" at Riverside Court who is bias with WOMEN regardless if they are lying or telling the truth, remove this person of the bench because she breaks family ties and gives women upper hands to abuse their partners and throw more fatherless children on the streets; you must act sooner before she harms the communities even more, this is my resolution to resolve your idiotic homeless problems; your stupid laws harmful to families when you prompt "DIVORCE FOR NO FAULT" how stupid you are with your dump legal system cooperating with the DEVIL to harm and break families more than any obvious enemies; if any of the partner/spouse wishes to leave, let them leave without taking the other spouse assets after spending all years to build themselves and then because of some irresponsible person such as "GAIL O`RANE" wiped out everything with no remorse or any kind of sense. REMOVE HER IMMEDIATELY!

This lady (for lack of a better word) is rude and disrespectful. She talks to people like she is better than them. Having had a phone conversation with her, she talked over me, wouldn't answer questions, made me feel like her job is more important than mine, and hung up on me twice. She has absolutely NO patience!

This judge is completely Biased. I was seen in her court room today for the second time and was not only verbally tormented by this woman, but thrown out of her court room because she refused to let me tell my side of the story when my ex was completely lying and manipulating everything. This lady hurts people and children. She is awful and has no moral value for the judicial system. It breaks my heart that children are to even be involved around her. She did care that I had evidence pertains to the father and grandmother of my child causing harm against her, she was upset because I followed her orders that she entered incorrectly. She needs to be stopped before someone’s child or a innocent woman gets hurt. These are domestic cases that are in her hands. If she doesn’t believe the evidence even then she should step down.

I have had to sit in the family courtroom many times. She is very patient and spends the time needed to really hear and consider cases. It seems like she thoroughly reviews cases before hand also. Very fair Judge that truly cares about upholding the laws the court is obligated to do.

This woman "Gail A O`Rane must be removed form this critical & sensitive position seat, today 10/26/16 I was there at the courtroom and I saw a case the poor guy had his lawyer his name Arthur Khachatourians who tried his best and I admired him fighting for his client and proofed that the petitioner and her sister wittiness both were lying about the case but guess what? in the end this WOMAN judge teamed up with the petitioner "WOMAN" although the lawyer had a stronger case and I thought for sure he will win his client`s case but I was chocked with this WOMAN judge picking up the side of the petitioner

She doesn't review cases regarding restraining orders. Even when she has evidence showing otherwise that supports the father's case. It seems as she sides with the mother. She needs to be removed from her seat as she was apointed by Gov. Brown. Let's open an investigation to see how her rulings fall. Does anyone know how to do this?

Can be very vindictive and swayed by personal bias. Not a great intellect. New judge who doesn't know the law.

This judge has no clue. She has admitted in court that she made mistakes in her orders and does nothing to trying and correct them. She has no regard for father's rights and is biased towards fathers. She continues to allow my ex to violate court orders without penalty and has cost me my daughter and my daughter is now a troubled teen. She allowed my daughter to stay with my ex who is severely depressed and perjured herself multiple times in court documents. She needs to be removed from the bench. She is never on time to court and strolls in wenever she is done having her morning coffee and chat sessions. She deos not look or considers facts in the case. She flip flops her opinion from one court date to the other. REMOVE HER PLEASE and look at her decisions for possible reversal.

This judge does not know the law! She listens to what others have to say and rules in their favor to cover herself or to win favoritism it appears. She violated the law in her ruling against me. Never listened to me or the facts I provided.

She's a new judge and can't make correct decision, has to go off reports to cover her safe. Custodial parent can be drinking and on drugs and Gail doesn't care. Doesn't care about Childs best interest and safety. Doesn't read all edvience that is submitted.
