This judge is completely dismissive of the importance of a son spending more time with his father. My husband has been denied for years of being able to pick up his son from school or taking him to shcool. His ex-wife who's an alleged adulterer would rather has his father not play any part of his child's school life for no other reason then evilness. The father is entitled to equal time with their child and the judge denied my husband that. Shame on that miserable woman for being so heartless and shameless depriving her child of knowing his father is important too. Karma is right around the corner for this kind of evil. You can't brag about being a church goer and move with such evilness, the two don't go together.

He blatantly ignored the facts! The defendant's attorney was consistently going to the judge's chambers while on break. It was mentioned in open court about lunch dates! Judge Burke was bias to the defendant, facts pointed out were unbelievably ignored numerous times. The plaintiff sought justice through other attorneys who replied you got screwed!

I don't know why you were able to let the little girl be outrageously ripped from her mother's custody, but it's not right and you should be ashamed of yourself.

Is money and status are clearly more important to you than an innocent child. You should not be a judge. I hope the people see this and know how crooked you really are. You scarred a young girl for life all because you are clearly playing into the hand of Kathy Hullings. Horrible!

You should be ashamed of yourself. You have committed that girl to a lifetime of mental health problems.

I am, frankly, appalled at the total disregard this "honorable" judge has for the physical and mental well-being of small children. Shame on you for siding with that hag of a grandmother, Kathy Hullings, who had TWICE kidnapped her granddaughter, and placing her in the position of handling the visitation handoff! Was there absolutely no other person available to help with the handoff? And the gag order he issued to poor mom - is it to protect himself, since the social media started to pick up the story? Disgusting.

Amazed at the errors made by this new Family court judge. Simple calculations botched by the court. Does not explain his final rulings even after correcting the mistake. Family law is different from Criminal law. Perhaps the court is better off if this Judge went back to being a prosecutor
