Everything seems to indicate that this judge does not read the cases she has, or at least that is the impression she gives.
In a family case in which we were with her as a judge, it took almost 8 months to give a ruling and there were contradictory things, such as that the plaintiff did not prove to have depression problems or did not show sufficient evidence, but nevertheless in hearings Before the trial it had already been established that she did have depression and what was the reason for it. Furthermore, during the trial the witness who could support that evidence did not bring it into the courtroom since she was in a hurry because they were going to clean the courtroom.
She did NOT take into account all the years they were together as a couple, she did not take into account the plaintiff who lived for almost 18 years on the property and left her homeless and almost left to her own devices.
She also did not take into account that the defendant had changed the title of the house to hide the property from the dissolution of marriage lawsuit, even when evidence was presented about that and it was the main reason why the case took so long to reach trial. .
After the Trial, the case was immobile from the beginning of March until the end of October. The impression I get is that she was more focused on the elections than on resolving this cases.
"Justice delayed is Justice Denied."
She also did not take into account that the defendant requested a loan on the property when the house supposedly no longer "belonged" to him, and in the application for said loan he stated that he was single, however the Judge ruled that the loan as it was on the property It also affected the plaintiff, even when it was done without her authorization and that is what it seems this judge relied on to leave the plaintiff without her home.
Currently, the plaintiff, after almost 40 years of relationship, was on the street, sick and without work. In her final ruling, the judge's recommendation was that she ask for disability and receive help from the government.
We were very impressed with the lack of humanity and lack of justice that she has shown.

Just not very bright. Very pro prosecution. Guess being a former prosecutor and always being a government attorney will do that. Has no clue what it takes to be in private practice.
