Civil Litigation - Govt.

Rating:5.8
Comments:
As another commentor said, she kept her law professor demeanor. Doesn't seem to like the lawyers who appear in front of her.

Judge Laughery did not recuse herself in a civil litigation against Columbia College although she is a close family friend of the President, Gerald Brouder. She spoke at CC graduation and they attend same church. Their children grew up together and Brouder knew her as an administrator at UMC where she taught.

My experience with Judge Laughrey is in a motion practice setting. Her decisions are fair and well reasoned. Also she is prompt and responsive.
It is all good.

Definitely a pro-plaintiff judge. The only judge who was blatant in her attempt to influence a jury during trial.

Prosecutor

Comment #: 4796
Rating:5.8
Comments:
Tries her best, but shows no practical appreciation of the criminal process which occurs outside the courtroom. Views cooperators as rats who are not entitled to much of a break, even when they put themselves in serious physical jeopardy. Has little toleration for violent offenders at sentencing.

You never know what you're going to get. Her temperament is a real problem, as she's kept her "professor mentality" from her days as a law school professor.
