Late last week the West Virginia Supreme Court issued an opinion formally censuring a Family Court Judge who was caught on video searching the home of my client, threatening him with jail, and forcing him to turn off video and audio recordings documenting the event. The Court held that the WV Constitution bars a judicial officer from personally searching someone’s home and that doing so was no longer a “judicial act.” This may be very important to the fact that we have a federal civil rights lawsuit pending right now, where the judge has asserted judicial immunity, which pertains to that very thing.
While the judge claimed to have the power to conduct a “view” of a litigant’s home because in Family Court, they are both the judge and the jury, the Supreme Court shot that argument down.
“Indeed, searches are so quintessentially executive in nature that even a judge who participates in one acts ‘not * * * as a judicial officer, but as an adjunct law enforcement officer….”

So the judge in the morales case could’ve ordered the bailiff to go shoot that lawyer and only Judge Stevens would recognize that as a circumstance to deny judicial immunity. Orders a battery and they still give him immunity that’s crazy
I heard she subsequently informed the Judaical review board to reverse the decision or she would hold them in direct contempt of court and have them arrested. Her words and actions that day were no less absurd in the statement I just made. oh I just heard she went to law school and the Cayman Islands OK starting to make sense.
Threatening arrest in retaliation for someone asserting their First Amendment rights is unquestionably unconstitutional. That has been argued and decided.
“well we’re going to find it“ and their argument is it was not a search. Give me a break.
This is giving Boss Hogg from the Dukes Of Hazard vibes. This judge was doing the most.
I hope the judge in my pending case is reasonable
She's corrupt and needs to be fired.
That is one very corrupt Judge that should not be on the bench.
That judge should be disbarred!! Over reach of power!
So what about 1st, 4th and 14th amendment violations when the phone was seized ?
censured? he still has his job, he still is senile, he still thinks he is above the law. he still gets paid WAY better than those he looks down on. did he learn his lesson? dont think so
the question remains. Do we really need the Third Amendment in our modern age? We have a standing Army, Navy and Air Force. All have healthy budgets for housing troops. Yet, legal scholars contend the Third Amendment does have relevance in the present. It exemplifies the right to personal privacy, to the sanctity of the American home. It is the only place in the Constitution discussing the relationship between civilians and the military. It stands for the idea that in this country people are protected from the government intruding into our homes and our private spaces.
This is a reason that many men no longer want to get married the courts are stacked against men and this just helps prove that point.
In a recent family court submission, explosive allegations have been made against the Ministry of Justice, New Zealand Lawyers, and the New Zealand Police. The submission,which has been described as one of the best court submissions ever, alleges criminal activities and corruption within these institutions.
The submission alleges that the Ministry of Justice engaged in child abuse theft, fabrication, fraud, and perverting the course of justice, all for pecuniary gains. The evidence presented in the submission is said to be documented beyond any reasonable doubt, leaving no room for doubt about the intentions of those involved mostly that of detective Shane Pilmer, Judge De Ridder and a Judge De Jong among many other offenders within this institution.
During the court proceedings, Judge De Jong was accused of lying and deliberately perverting the course of justice. The submission alleges that Judge De Jong, who was under oath as a judge, was complicit in the corrupt court practices and fabrications.
The submission paints a bleak picture of the justice system in New Zealand and alleges that filthy judges and dirty cops are still at large to harm others. The submission concludes with a chilling warning that no one is safe and asks if your child and property could be next.
These are serious allegations and will undoubtedly be thoroughly investigated. The Ministry of Justice, New Zealand Lawyers, and the New Zealand Police have yet to respond to the claims made in the submission. The outcome of this case could have far-reaching consequences for the justice system in New Zealand.

Is there a channel like this specific to Pennsylvania?!
A fully understood Reference to the jury – is a jury of "peers "
Does this mean an " equivalent"?
This Judge / jury/ and executioner capacity by this Judge is absolutely mind-blowing 🤯
Everything on YT like this reminds me of Trump.
Scary .
The law legal concept of quo warranto can be used to unseat an officer for doing actions outside of their legal power because they commit crimes that disqualify them from their office!
Its Bar-license should have been revoked permanently…
Need update plz
Would the result be the same if she stolled around and only ordered all the others to act? And the warrantless entry?
pretty light punishment for a judge who is ignorant of the law!
I hope she catches hers and then some! This wretch destroys family's! Look up LOU ELLEN GOLDSTON! GET HER OUT OF ANY AUTHORITY
Imagine, a woman who thinks she is the law, entirely. the arrogance and ignorance of the law. I hope this woman was dis-barred, and found guilty of multiple civil rights violations.
Thank goodness somebody finally stopped this egotistical judge. She thinks that being a judge gives her limitless powers. Scary as heck!
SHE IS A FREAK'N NAZI
Insane that this happens in West Virginia
And she is still a judge?
Thats the problem with people of authority, they overstep thire authority
Prior to arriving at your client's house, was a warrent signed for the search?
Is it wise to grant a corrupt judicial officer immunity for corruption? I suspect some other corrupt judge or judges set this policy up to affirm their being above the law.
he should of not let them in . let them break down the door and he let them arrest him . bigger payday
These judges are out of control. It’s a shame they protect their own interests well above the protection they provide for our children. 🤬
This women is on some kind if drugs. She is slurring her words, anger problem and is a well known man hater lesbian. I live near her and she has over 20 cats, her property is disheveled and the whiskey and beer bottles are pilled high near her garbage cans. She is a crazy old lady.
