My experience and what I have observed in this court raises serious concerns regarding due process and judicial accountability. This is not about being unhappy with a ruling this is about a pattern where: the record does not reflect what actually occurred evidence is not meaningfully considered and decisions are issued without clear support in the proceedings As a parent, being labeled or restricted without findings of unfitness while evidence to the contrary exists is something no one should have to experience. Family courts are supposed to protect children and uphold constitutional rights. When those protections are not consistently applied, the consequences are devastating. I am actively pursuing legal remedies to correct the record and protect my rights. Transparency and accountability in these courts are not optional they are necessary. Fairness & Impartiality: if conflict of interest is ok then she is doing a great job. Timeliness: if 8, 10, 12 months is how families cases should be placed on hold then I guess she is doing a great job.

custody case, non married parents, father is a police officer and worked with glass and her husband (now retired sheriff/SWAT), mother worked with glass in prosecutors office (2007 college internship). glass had repeated ex-parte communications with father (6 years worth of subpoenaed cell phone records show glasses personal cell number registered with the Supreme Court, chambers number and her husband’s number throughout records particularly around all court dates), father admitted to only filing for custody to get out of child support, admitted to dropping child off with random strangers so he could sleep, father never provided any evidence of the ever changing accusations, never provided receipts of the claims of spending thousands of dollars on child he admitted to legally abandoning the entire first year of life and transcripts show a dozen different amounts he claimed to have spent, father only met child less than a handful of times prior to glass giving him 90% custody, ten magistrates and counting throughout case tenure and each was terminated after following the law, rules of evidence and best interests of the child when they all sided with mother and documented evidence including messages, video and audio recordings, doctor records and testimony, etc. and then glass would sua sponte vacate or deny and dismiss each magistrate order and flip every decision from mother to father claiming the magistrates “inadvertently” entered inaccurate information against father and add that mother wasn’t credible and barred all evidence from mother from being admitted into the case. in 2024 fathers wife gave child second and third degree burns, admitted to giving child said burns, showed no remorse and tried to physically assault mother during trial testimony and the case had to be canceled for the remainder of the day and rescheduled for another day, yet the transcript and court order doesn’t address this at all and when appeal was filed glass claimed mother and child were not credible and documented burns weren’t factual, appeals court declined two of three assignments of error and denied and dismissed DVCPO claiming judicial discretion without reviewing entire case file. father was given 50/50 (2-2-3 schedule) and every year for tax purposes and from 2016 to 2024 child support was reduced by glass from CSEA calculations of $1,200/month to $300/month (father’s consistent salary of $145,000+ compared to mothers salary of $28,000 to $0 in 2022 when family court negligence legally disabled mother after an “unknown person” set her house on fire while mother and child were sleeping aka attempted murder and mother was unable to save herself after saving her child and was rescued by police after suffering tremendous smoke inhalation). as of today father is sporadic at best with his parenting time since 2024 and hasn’t seen child in two months straight. Legal Knowledge: manipulation of specific laws, claims glass claims attorneys and litigants don’t understand the concept of laws and that all laws are based on interpretation vs face value wording. Fairness & Impartiality: pro father, pro abuser, refuses to accept anything a child says regardless of evidence Judicial Temperament: if there is an audience she is performative and tries to treat each party like a child. If there is no audience then she is very condescending, rude and openly mocks and laughs at pro se litigants but allows attorneys to scream at each other without interrupting. She is very good at putting on a show! Communication: most rulings contain falsified information about one or both parties. rulings are written in context of her interpretation vs factual testimony given (by factual testimony I mean that a party literally stated regardless of accuracy or evidence). Timeliness: a five day trial was scheduled out over the course of a full calendar year and the ruling wasn’t filed for almost 11 months. temporary orders were in place for five years before glass officially canceled first trial while all parties were waiting in hallway for it to start, both sides were forced to sign the temporary orders as permanent orders, three months later we were forced to negotiate new orders randomly due to glass “misplacing” the orders we were forced to sign.
