My thoughts on Judge Olefson:

was not a litigator prior to taking the bench;

too inexperienced for the job;

hates her job;

toxic demeanor;

only shows up to advance an agenda; and

does not care about her constituents.

She does not belong on the bench.

Here we have a special diversity case wingnut. Before you find yourself in front of this one its good to have a little background. [Redacted by Ed.] Do you feel like you're dealing with a full deck here?

She recently provided a summary judgement for the Hilton/QClub vs Riggo case which amongst other things addressed daily Resort fees collected by the former but not shared with the condo owners. Olefson, struggled for 3 months to find an out on this one, knowing where the bread is buttered, she didn't disappoint. She threw the case on an obviously incorrect limitations argument.

Time to boot this one to the curb [Redacted by Ed.] .
