We are a group on Ex CIA Officers and Analysts who investigate corruption in the courts. This judge is a disgrace to honest judges in Florida. She interfered in a case that was not hers and took the side of a convicted child kidnapper/child abuser and prostitute with NO evidence of anything, yet blamed a father who has done nothing but fight for his child. If she's doing this as a judge, imagine how many innocent people she used false evidence against as a prosecutor. Our investigation will continue. This is an obscene abuse of her authority, and from the other comments this is not her first time violating litigants Civil Rights and Parental Rights. Sad state of affairs for the fifth circuit with her on the bench

[Redacted by Ed.]. Without question she is anti-female. She denies motions & evidence because it is an inconvenience to her. She chooses sides in cases. This becomes evident when a citizen is seen before her in several trials where she chooses the same person in every case, She definitely sudes with the narcissist.

IT'S ALL ABOUT MONEY..my friend...when you enter a courtroom with Hon. Jeniffer Bass. Be aware.
She adores lies in the courtroom, she adores narcissistic fathers. She would hate you to death, if you are not rich, you could be the best person in the world, doesn't matter
Money, money, money..
That is why children are molested and with broken lives. Thanks to modern judge. ho-ho.

If you do not have a attorney due to lack of funds.Judge Bass will accuse you of being stupid if you don't understand legal terms she will refuse all evidence including DCF reports proving abuse she has no regard to children's emotional needs she is pro male anti woman she has proved this 23 cases in a row with the same attorney .The fathers always receive custody regardless of criminal background forcing woman to pay ungodly amounts of money they don't have.She has also turned down protection orders multiple times.One young lady has lost her life and many children have lost there mothers due to her woke agenda.Something drastically needs to be done before more people and children lose there lives.

Judge Bass does not follow law she makes up what she thinks sound good to cover her butt !! Even when supreme court cases are presented to her she ignores the supreme court cases to come up with her own rulings and decisions which violates a lot of constitutional rights . And I’m no attorney but understanding a basic stander by the supreme court ruling it’s pretty common sense this judge has no common sense. She needs to be removed from the stand and go back to a State prosecuting attorney and I would even question that skill ! Good judges in Marion County are all retiring she should’ve got to spend more time with a very good judges and learned more .

She is the exact reason Judges should be voted in, not appointed. I can understand a need for a judge on an urgent basis when one steps down but she was a very poor choice by Rick Scott.

Judge Bass is a highly intelligent and fair Judge. She makes fair and very reasoned decisions and you can trust she will be patient, professional and courteous. Do not push your luck with her though, she follows the law as one would expect a good Judge to do. Marion county is lucky to have her!

This judges own bailiff told me the injunction granted against me would’ve never been granted in another court!! Judge Bass grants petitions for injunctions on baseless, unfounded claims to ALL petitioners. If you have a salacious agenda against another human being, file an injunction in Marion county and get in front judge bass and your agenda will manifest. Completely biased to respondents for someone who should hold one of the HIGHEST positions of power. She will be voted out when it’s her turn to be re-elected and Rick Scott won’t be there to stop it!! Thank god for the American voice, or so we think.

Judge Bass should never have been appointed a family law judge. She had zero experience in that aspect of the law. She took the position because she wanted to be a judge and got the judgeship because of her political connections with former Governor Scott. She is afraid to make hard decisions and allows her cases to drag on endlessly in hopes they will die a natural death. She doesn't deserve another term in office.

Judge Bass was my family law judge. She was very fair, very professional, and resolved my case quickly. I was very fortunate to have her as my assigned Judge!

Weak, distant and aloof. Focuses on unimportant matters. Sounds inappropriately authoritative. Not judge material. Could be a lot kinder.

Very form over function, likes to give her personal opinion on things as opposed to worrying herself with the actual facts of the case. Favors male litigants over women, especially attractive ones. Makes mountains out of molehills yet doesn't even bat an eye at someone who willfully disobeys an order and/or breaks the well settled law. Try to get in front of Craggs, you will have a much more fair outcome.

Awful is my opinion as she makes more statements and gives more opinions then anything . She never want to hold any party in contempt and her follow threw is awful when clear evidence is presented . The choice of governor Rick Scott to appoint judge Bass was a bad decision on his part . There are a lot of great judges in Marion county but judge Bass is not even close to a great judge. Maybe a good state attorney but not a judge
