Comments:
Judge Mitchell is highly experienced, intelligent, efficient and doesn’t waste time. She is polite, respectful and manages the court calendar exceptionally well. She doesn’t suffer fools so you had better be prepared, on-time and never ever try to mislead the court or make excuses for not being ready as scheduled. Acts with the utmost professionalism and compassion at all times. Never looses her cool. Judicial Temperament is extraordinary. Outstanding jurist handling the most difficult felony cases.

Rating:1.3

Comments:
She is caustic, unfair, not well-tempered and tilts to the prosecution in criminal cases. She uses her very modest intelligence so dishonestly as to make litigation a farce. She seems to take malicious delight in imposing draconian sentences. She is unfit to be a judge.
