When Courts Excuse Misconduct: Accountability, Bias, And Power


Listen Later

Send a text

A judicial conduct commission documents a pattern of abusive behavior, staff departures, and a suspension, only for a state supreme court to reverse removal and reopen the door to future judicial roles. We weigh accountability, bias, and how courts should protect both dignity and fairness without sacrificing trust.

• misconduct findings that cite staff departures and disrespect
• suspension following commission review and delayed hearing
• high court reversal allowing return after thirty days
• tension between bias claims and accountability standards
• risks to courtroom culture, due process, and public trust
• proposals for transparent oversight and fair remediation
