| 117588 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | She can be the poster child of why Judicial Discipline and Judicial oversight must be in the forefront. Judges like her get away with anything and everything knowing that is next to impossible to a judge in trouble unless it’s som...Read More | 04/25/2023 11:38 AM | Contact reviewer |
| 117256 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | Judge Bowick has a good demeanor but is a very harsh in her rulings, and has not followed the law on the matters we have brought before her, even where the legal issues were quite clear. | 04/07/2023 11:10 AM | Contact reviewer |
| 116731 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | No one can beat this one. She literally granted every motion filed by the defendant without so much as reading it. During trial she was more of a cheerleader than judge. She was discussing her options with counsel as if I’m not ev...Read More | 03/13/2023 11:50 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 116679 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | I’ve been trying to find this site for a while now. I can put to rest a lot of myths. I know Steph and her through her husband. These ratings do affect her to the extend I have seen her write a few of them and she just laughs it ...Read More | 03/09/2023 11:21 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 116486 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | I have been very happy with Judge Bowick. Because all 3 parties' lawyers get along, she has allowed us to be lawyers, not standing in the way of agreements that we have reached. While she is not happy with bickering lawyers, she...Read More | 02/28/2023 12:37 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 109650 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | I tried a case before Judge Bowick. She was patient and judicious, courteous to parties and counsel, listened carefully and made reasoned rulings. I did not see the judge everyone else is complaining about. | 08/19/2022 11:43 AM | Contact reviewer |
| 103330 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | Judge Bowick is biased towards the defense and makes no effort to hide her bias or be impartial. She refused to hear any of plaintiff's motions on shortened notice but routinely allowed defense to hear motions on shortened notice....Read More | 03/08/2022 05:18 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 75913 | Litigant | No Rating | Judge Bowick was obviously appointed for political reasons rather than on her own merit of being a qualified judicial candidate. She is actually worse than Elizabeth Feffer. I didn't think this was possible, but it is. She acts ...Read More | 09/10/2019 02:18 PM | Contact reviewer |

| 67239 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | In my opinion judge Bowick is far and away the worst, least professional, worst prepared, and STUPIDEST judge I have ever had the misfortune of appearing before. She doesn't read documents that are filed with her, and then blames ...Read More | 03/26/2019 04:21 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 64628 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | Re: comment #CA17039 this commentary is an absolute farce. Unless there is an obvious technically, Bowick NEVER rules on the bench- unless she has has several continuances on the very issue. And after 30+ years who other than judg...Read More | 02/03/2019 12:35 AM | Contact reviewer |
| 64555 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | Judge Bowick was prompt for her morning calendar on the day of my motion, and I watched most if not all of her entire calendar before my matter was called. She was extremely courteous and friendly to all the attorneys before her,...Read More | 01/31/2019 02:38 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 61168 | Criminal Defense Lawyer | No Rating | A real bigoted zero of a judge. Loves criminals hates victims. Hopefully one day she too can experience the living hell she caused for so many HINEST VICTIMS. Nasty nasty person.... | 10/31/2018 08:35 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 61166 | Criminal Defense Lawyer | No Rating | If you have a case against a school district, or any other public entity, she’ll be biased in favor of the entity.

| 56779 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | This judge is disgrace to the legal community, and should be recalled. She is always late to the bench, not read the motions, biased, and systematically disregards the existing, authoritative law. | 06/10/2018 01:17 AM | Contact reviewer |
| 56197 | Criminal Defense Lawyer | No Rating | This judge is a bigoted idiot whose purpose in life is to screw the victim while honoring the crooks.

| 55026 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | I’ve been before this judge more than 60 times. Can offer my fellow lawyers some advice: file your motions to be heard toward end of week, preferably Friday’s. Use bold headings. Write like a first grader. Do not let your m&p go b...Read More | 04/05/2018 01:12 PM | Contact reviewer |

| 54763 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | She too scared to rule. Too stupid to know how to rule. And to lazy to read, if she is able to read at all.

| 54712 | Civil Litigation - Govt. | View Details | Judge Stephanie M. Bowick is a disgrace to the bench | 03/15/2018 07:45 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 54425 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | It was astonishing that Stephanie M. Bowick was so BIAS that even did not like to consider such a strong discovered evidence against defendant because the employer was a public entity. This judge should be dismissed and removed im...Read More | 02/27/2018 05:43 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 54395 | Criminal Defense Lawyer | No Rating | YES HER TEMPERAMENT IS AS UNPREDICTABLE AS AN ANIMAL IN THE WILD. BUT COMPARED TO JUDGE ELIZABETH FEFFER, SHE IS AS KIND AS ANGEL, AS SMART AS EINSTEIN, AND EVEN HANDED AS THE BLIND JUSTICE. | 02/26/2018 02:47 AM | Contact reviewer |
| 54394 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | Meet and Confer. Meet and Confer. Meet and Confer. Meet and Confer. THE ONLY THING SHE KNOWS.

| 53320 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | I disagree with whoever says she can't be impartial against a public entity. She granted an ex parte for me against the AG that I was very surprised to win on (although it was the right decision, the clerk had told me she would n...Read More | 12/30/2017 05:58 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 53050 | Criminal Defense Lawyer | View Details | I would highly advise utilizing a 170.6 if you have a case against a public entity before this judge. She somehow cannot be impartial and wants to side with the public entity lawyer, regardless of what the issue is. | 12/11/2017 04:58 AM | Contact reviewer |
| 53049 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | If you have any case with complicated legal issues this judge will work you over.

She will get hung up on the simplest of issues and sh...Read More | 12/11/2017 04:23 AM | Contact reviewer |

| 52538 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | I was surprised by the tone and tenor of the negative comments. I found her to be accommodating, reasonable and familiar with her caseload. | 11/06/2017 12:46 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 52254 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | Rotten judge. Biased . While acknowledging a enormous crime she fought for defendents. Defendents never appeared incourt. This was fine by her. Her lack of concern for the victims has destroyed a company of 40 hard working humans...Read More | 10/21/2017 01:57 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 49888 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | I am truly shocked this person is a judge. Her decorum is embarrassing to the profession. She yells at attorneys in the courtroom, interrupts them every time they speak, asks question and then cuts off the answer. Doesn't understa...Read More | 06/02/2017 01:06 AM | Contact reviewer |
| 45477 | Other | No Rating | I write this rating not only out of frustration and as a cry for justice, but also in the hope that the Committee on Judicial Performance reads and acts on the public and professionals' opinion and experience with this Judge. She ...Read More | 09/22/2016 01:59 AM | Contact reviewer |

| 37832 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | Terrible judge with virtually no understanding of the law. A classic example of someone who has risen well beyond her capabilities. | 09/30/2015 01:17 PM | Contact reviewer |
| 22710 | Civil Litigation - Private | View Details | Judge Bowick handled my case really well. She was patient, read everything, and understood all of the details. She ultimately made the right decision. She is an excellent judge. | 08/08/2013 09:26 PM | Contact reviewer |
