Civil Litigation - Private

Comment #: NJ5198
Rating:1.3
Comments:
Completely rail roaded me, didn’t listen to law or statutes, issued orders based on hear say with no hard factual evidence and bad faith and told me I wasn’t credible. I had her in a trial and she completely disregarded law against absolute immunity and entered an FRO against me (interesting bc judges have absolute immunity). I loved her at first and now it’s pretty clear she shows favoritism.

Had a one day trial after lunch, she did not come back until after 2. No respect for litigants, I wish I was given Judge Edwards

Litigant

Comment #: NJ5191
Rating:Not Rated
Comments:
The Judge showed lack of restraint, lack of candor, communicated ex parte with the adversary attorney, issued rulings that were confusing, and jeopardized the restraining order hearing. As a black man, she seemed to favor towards women and said on the record she didn’t appreciate men. What a poor choice Murphy picked.

I had high hopes for Judge Youssef, she is prejudiced, does not follow the law, while pretending to act in a child's best interest. She does not fight for single mothers, disregards out of state law, and orders young children back to parents who sexually abuse them.

Prosecutor

Comment #: NJ5167
Rating:1.4
Comments:
Dictator, Authoritarian, Bully.

Abuses and exploits her position to threaten and intimidate attorneys and litigants to avoid work. Uses fee shifting as a tool of exploitation. A disgust to public service and waste of taxpayer dollars. Governor and Senate Judiciary Committee should take a note of this. NJ Judiciary should not be used as a revenge and extortion tool against public.

New Judge. Completely biased in favor of women and Senior Lawyers. "If you bother me I will punish you" attitude. Dictatorial behavior. Lacks Judicial temperament. Single handed perspective of cases. Egoistic.
