Courtroom demeanor seemed to be mostly above board. Completely disagree with his latches rulings on the other issues at hand which were not tried. I didn’t see a conclusive arguement from the defense why their deviation from prescribed AZ election laws. Plaintiffs presented enough evidence to show illegal actions under law, which should be picked up by state’s attorney’s office for prosecution, and its shocking this judge didn’t think it was highly probably (does not need to be beyond a shadow of a doubt in civil cases) her rights and the rights of AZ citizens were violated by Maricopa County officials.

I watched the entire Kari Lake trial. Evidence was established and perjury by at least one of defense witnesses was shown. Other examples of incompetitance/malfeasance in election process also presented. [Redacted by Ed.]

This latest theft and insult to voters is part of a larger plan to destroy our confidence in not only our elections but in our legislative, judicial and executive branches of government. The plan is working beyond expectations.
No one wants to talk about our history as it pertains to throwing off, and keeping away, tyranny. Our founders knew this day could arrive. A time as divided as the present existed shortly before the war between the states.
We the people must decide if we're courageously free or submissive serfs.
The Second Amendment wasn't written just for squirrel hunters, it was written for those brave enough and deserving enough of liberty and Truth to wield it wisely.

Well Judge Peter Thompson strikes again, [Redacted by Ed.] i know this Judge Intimately. He was the Judge that overseen my child support and visitation case in the late teen of 2000 years. My ex was a terror and lied beyond belief and visible lies, as a matter fact so bad a child could rightfully call out my ex on perjury and document fraud. Again, here we are, Judge Thompson overseeing some kind of fraud. I knew when I heard his name, it sent me back to the days in court with this excuse for a judge. If anyone wants to see how bad his ruling was, look at family court case, FC2002093985. Now as far as Judge Peter Thompson, Katie Hobbs and her crew are on their way to Gitmo. I hope to see them on video in their military tribunals saying ( IM INNOCENT AND WAS ONLY DOING MY JOB ). I did not hold any ill feelings for Thompson until his ruling for this election. Now here is why, this man had the power to do right by the innocent and worthy. But he did not. [Redacted by Ed.] PLease! If anyone has a similar story about this loser, please share here. Hope someone that has power sees this [Redacted by Ed.].

Clearly, With the facts presented by kari lakes team, this judge [Redacted by Ed.] and did not serve justice.

60% of same day sites had technical problems that were set on that day and chain of custody was nonexistent.

Go higher. Find an honest court

he didn't learn much from his Dad as he took a different 'road' and listened to peers of his generation. He will fall.

Absolutely horrible judge! No fairness. Blatantly ignores evidence and proof. He is a disgusting human being who gave custody of a child to known child abuser. Why is he allowed to sit on the bench and continue to destroy lives. Look at his reviews!!

This judge has absolutely no idea how to be fair or impartial. He took my ex-husbands word for everything even though I submitted proof and evidence proving my ex-husband was lying. The judge completely disregarded all of my exhibits and my evidence and he flat-out denied every request I ever made to the court in the year-and-a-half he was precuding over our divorce. He gave my ex-husband custody of our daughter even though I as well as my two other children testified as to the abuse they endured from my ex-husband for years. What kind of judge gives a child abuser custody???? He is horribly, horribly unfair and extremely bias. I could sense the judge didn't like me from day one so I believe this is why he gave my husband everything he asked for. I got completely screwed in every way in this divorce thanks to this unfair and unethical judge. In my opinion he should not be on the bench. I have filed a complaint with the Commission on judicial conduct and I highly encourage anyone else who's had a problem with this judge to do the same. By the looks of all these negative reviews I'm not the only one who has an issue with him. Shame on you judge Thompson for giving my abusive ex-husband custody even though you knew he abused me and my kids. I truly don't know how you can look yourself in the mirror!!

Judge Thompson has been very thorough and fair. He does not get swayed or manipulated easily. He upholds the law, is unbiased (except for his knowledge history of the relevant case) and really does have the child's best interest in mind. From reviews posted on several sites of him, including his biography- he really urges parents, especially fathers to stand up. A judge can only do so much to get through to people though.

His courtroom management is great. He gives equal time for both parties to speak. If you respect him, and the courtroom- which is a given, you'll be fine.

Truth and fact is what judges focus on. Some people are okay lying under oath- but this judge sniffs it out.

This judge doesn't seem to be interested in doing his job. He has allowed the mother of my child and her fiancée to alienate me for years. I have filed motion after motion to try to get enforcement. This judge has FORCED me to dismiss my motion for contempt by threatening to "remove all the parental rights from one of you and give them to the other." -as he looked me in the eyes. I no longer have a relationship with my son, have lost my job as a Police Officer, and am falling further behind on child support because I cant pay that plus all the court fees. He allows my son's mother to lie on the record and does nothing. He turns everything back on me. I work for the Government and she's a server- but I need to do more to provide. Makes sense. There is nothing honorable about this Judge.

this man is completely clueless to what is in the best interests of a child. if anything happens to my child while in the care of the other parent,I hold him personally responsible. he should be ashamed of himself.

Judge Thompson is unethical to say the least. He rules according to his beliefs and does not view the facts. He makes prejudice statements, I do not understand how he is still on the bench.

This judge listened only to the lies of the mother who did not file the proper paperwork and should have lost by default. This judge is the absolute worse at caring for the childs best interest
