Judge Alksne (Ret.) was an excellent Judge. Conscientious, hard working, very smart and experienced. In her Family Law assignments she was excellent and very proactive in getting matters resolved. She will do very well as a private mediator. I consider her one of our top two FL Judges/mediators in San Diego County.

This judge has really stepped up to the plate during the pandemic. She has done an unbelievable job. She has reached out to attorneys via video to keep them informed. I have nothing but good things to say about her.

does not know what a preemptory challenge is? that means you can no longer participate in a legal case of one you have been challeneged. Lorna does not abide by rules or think she is a exceptional person. You were challenged so you can have nothing to do with the case least of all set a party up with a real judge worse then her. her staying on he case was gaslighting

I would paper Judge Alksne. She is pleasant enough, but is not knowledgeable and does not want to do the work required to get up to speed on motions. Even simple discovery motions are an ordeal before her.
