Comments

Civil Litigation - Private

Comment #: MA734
Rating:2.6

Comments:
Judge Campbell failed to prepare herself by reviewing the pleadings before the hearing. She was rude, rushed counsel, and had the appearance of bias early in the hearing. It is sad that we do not get to elect judges or have any other recourse against bad judges.

total waste of judicial resources, and waste of litigant's time and money. The most biased judge in Massachusetts.

Comment #: MA632
Rating:Not Rated
Comments:
Appears to have worked for city of Boston to possibly discourage lawsuits as stated in her LinkedIN profile, and performs such duties as a justice.

So is that not fraud? If you purposely upset defendants, encourage bad behavior under your courtroom environment, deny due process, and actually spend the time and energy to methodically breed unsafe conditions, how do justify a law degree? Never mind actually practicing. The method to her madness is not conducive to solving problems, as she creates more of them. She is a real disgrace, lack of overall intellect and integrity.

Comment #: MA566
Rating:1.0

Comments:
Disgraceful, unethical, inhumane, extremely prejudiced and biased. Practices total abuse of power in the court of law. Makes a mockery of the Massachusetts court system. Uses her judgeship and power to purposely punish people beyond the scope of her job just because she can. She purposely drags her feet, postpones court dates, wastes resources that Massachusetts taxpayers are funding, wastes court time that could otherwise be spent productively to put on a circus and enforce her bias against those that she deems deserve further "punishment" and grief based on the offense and her personal thoughts toward it. She does not give people the respect that she would expect in return. She does not follow any code of ethics as a human being, never mind a judge. She is a poor excuse of a person and even worse excuse of a judge in the position of power in the massachusetts court of law. She should be disrobed.

She is really awful. People deserve justice and fair treatment, but don't expect that with her. She is biased and sadly the citizens of this state have to pay for it.

Comment #: MA543
Rating:1.0

Comments:
One of the most biased judges in the Commonwealth. She routinely ignores case law, rules of court procedure, and Mass General Laws. She's an absolute disgrace to the bench. Decency and fairness are not in her vocabulary. She really belongs in Mauthausen (as a prisoner).
