TPO hearing Legal Knowledge: My ex tried to do divorce through TPO. while we waited the judge called out another case for the same thing. When it was my turn she was not consistent. Fairness & Impartiality: First month on the job and she worked in the prosecution’s office previously. My ex admitted on the stand that she hit me first and she had hit me in the past and that that would be considered domestic violence. The judge was clearly female biased. Judicial Temperament: she was fine Communication: She talked from both sides of her mouth.
