Unashamed callous LIAR. Caught her in a lie and called her out. She didn't flinch, just acted if nothing happened. Extremely vindictive. Will go out of her way to do the opposite if she doesn't favor you. If you cross her, she's even more rude making unfounded remarks. Absolutely no care or concern for the child whatsoever. Appears that she'd hand over her own kid if it was in her best interests. On the other hand she's easy to set up cause she takes the bait easily as she appears to have no shame or principles. These judges in Monterey Co. are so hardened when it comes to children that it would make one think that they are involved in a child trafficking scheme.

Juge is rude, biased and doesn't know the law. Judge is compliant govt worker assigning useless court investigators who fail to substantiate facts to write reports so she can make decisions based on the investigators "opinions'! She is one of the judge who will have you removed from the court if you are helping a party. She only wants ignorant stupid parties in front of her so she can control them.

She is just horrible in and outside the courtroom. I saw her once at a restaurant and I walked out. It spoiled my appetite and had I stayed it would have caused me indigestion.

She is one of the worst. If she does not like you she makes it very obvious on the bench. I do not like how she treated one DDA in the courtroom and frankly I was sickened. I practice in Santa Clara County. I have had some negative experiences in Monterey County. I am done.

This judge is another second chair for the prosecution. I don't know if she is any worse than any other Monterey county judge, however.

I do not like her demeanor which causes a lot of people discomfort and aggravation. I avoid her and that brings me great relief.
