Judge Martha A Matthews became a judge on a case I have and she violated 170.6 in open court. And abuser of the Law and our court that she works for. A true disgrace to our judicial system by all means with various others with her this a typical judge who thinks she is ABOVE the law and above the court she represents and works for. She violated the 170.6 against her that was filed within 14 days from the first day I knew she is a new judge on the case but she stayed in the case while disqualified by Law. All her orders are void but no one is doing anything to stop this [redacted] in our courtrooms. She allows a non party person by the name of Albert Pinto to address her in court during proceedings. Tried to force an Attoeney on me from IDP in violation of the conflict I have with IDP. Unbelievable
