I have practiced law for a long time. Judge Blue is an excellent Judge. Judge Blue is knowledgeable, courteous, very punctual, and decorous to the State and the Defense. She also works with an excellent Staff. She decides the Law according to her understanding, but that is what all Judges that I have appeared before do.

Definitely needs to hang that robe up. She's ignorant, mean, doesn't know how to speak to people like a normal human being, she treats everyone like trash and the only time she's even a bit decent is when she's having conversations with the lawyers about football all while on the record. She better not catch that phone get a notification no nothing either, not even if it's on silent and you have the flash notifications, she will empty the whole court room out!!! I really don't know what that's supposed to do, but I guess it's her form of punishment. At this point I know for a fact I would make a way better judge than she has ever been and ever will be and that's considering the fact I know nothing about this nasty evil miserable creature's profession. With all that being said, if you were to get this disgusting thing for a judge, just know your effed and good luck.

How is this woman still a judge? The most unfair and inconsiderate judge that I have ever came across in my life time. It is actually extremely sad because its more then obvious that this lady clearly has extremely serious issues with herself and takes it out on others. She is so unsatisfied with herself and hates who she is so much that she wants others to suffer only to make herself feel better about her insecurities. After all of these ridiculously sad reviews I have read about how unfair she is and how she goes against the law in everyway possible and does not review evidence or even take anyone's testimony into consideration and only basing her sentencing off of her opinion of that person is utter disgust. How is that even legal to give the maximum sentence based upon her personal opinion and not based on facts. There has to be a way to get this evil woman off the bench because what I have been reading about the way she treats human beings and the way she treated my husband at his detention hearing is an embarrassment to not only women but to our country and a disgrace to the human race. She needs to be made an example of why judges like her should not be aloud to be in the court room especially making the decisions for a persons life giving mostly everyone the absolute maximum sentence because of their skin color or because they are a man or because they are a few minutes late. What type of crap is that and all of those things are irrelevant to any case in general. Get this woman out of Camden Superior Courts or just off the bench in general. Karma will get her trust that and I have already prayed on it for her. She is going to be in for a rude awakening come judgement day for her nasty evilness.

This women is a mean, nasty, hopeless judge and should step down... She has a personal opinion on everyone's case she never consideres the facts or evidence, she is always rescheduling cases, and giving maximum sentences, unfair sentences and is not the kind of judge to be in Camden County Superior Court. Also, she does not like hotdog day in the jail. Some people know what I mean.

Judge Blue is a bias judge. She seems to have her own agenda. A judge is supposed to be neutral and only concerned about justice. She hands out extreme sentencing and probation. The appellate court reversed unjust decisions that she has made on cases. Her unfair practice is to routinely denial bail for people that should be released by the guidelines set by the state, hand out extreme sentences, administer long terms of probation and extreme programs like drug court so that people that are trying to rehabilitate themselves will most likely not be successful and violate these strict and unreasonable guidelines that these overbearing and unrealistic programs set for struggling citizens trying to get back on the road of straight and narrow. I am now facing her extreme sentencing in a case that I am clearly innocent in. I've gone as far as contacting the State Attorney General to no avail. She is ruining lives and breaking up families. She has no respect for her staff and people that attend her court sessions. She bullies the prosecutor routinely goes against their suggestions when is doesn't fall in line with her extreme rulings that feed the prisons system and go against the agenda of justice or any leniency for deserving citizens. In the era of jail reform that we are moving into she is a judge that is a strong adversary to the justice and redemption that the court system is finally attempting to give to citizens . I stand as one of her victims I hope that someone addresses her unfair and unjust behavior on the bench. She has sworn to uphold the state and federal constitution. I believe she is just another extreme judicial puppet seeking to feed the jail system from the blood of citizens that need real help and a shot at the freedom that this country was built on.

This judge knew what she was doing when she gave me an FRO against my ex. Well after this my ex retaliated with the only thing he could do to hurt me and I lost custody of my daughter cause my ex was going bankrupt after losing about 20 jobs and needed her for the money. When I had her emancipated he kicked her out. Then he opened up credit cards in her name, committed identity fraud and stole her life savings account. All of which I can prove. We will be pursuing legal action against him. The truth has finally came out and I have my daughter back forever. Enjoy jail red! Lol. “Put that in your pipe and smoke it” loser

She is a joke she had proof of my innocence and still made me take a deal by telling me that she would take away the ROR the bail judge gave me and have me sit in the county jail three and four months at a time if I didn't except the plea deal and when I excepted the plea deal she changed it from three years to five years on a domestic violence case even though my record show that I never was charged with domestic violence in my life as I stated to her that day God will deal with all of this however I have to deal with five years of probation and fines and a year of slap for doing what the law required for me to do if two people gets into a quarrel one must separate themselves and when I did that I was charged with domestic violence even though they had no proof of me harming anyone. She is a joke and should be off the bench for her negligence. This is for my fiance Lenwoodfisher.

Really not a good judge. Does not have command of the rules of evidence or the court rules. Generally not very good in charging the jury on criminal cases. Makes improper evidentiary ruling. Generally a nice person, but an ineffective judge. Also I thought you had to live in NJ to be a superior court judge. Its widely know among the staff that lives in Philadelphia.

Although known to be a tough judge with little empathy, I think Judge Blue does a great job. She makes sure all charges are completely understood by defendants, and when it comes to sentencing she goes the extra mile to make sure defendants understand the law and the terms of their sentencing. This review comes from a defendant.

If there were a negative rating, I would have clicked it. Judge Blue is an absolute joke. I'm not sure what her problem is. She shows this need to flex a judicial muscle and looks down on everyone. Good judges treat people with respect. Good judges are knowledgeable, well spoken and intelligent. I guess English isn't part of law school. If it were, you wouldn't have a joke of a judge sitting on the bench saying the court wants to AXE you a question. She must have purchased the answers to the bar.

I have never been in criminal court ever in my life and unfortunately was there for a couple of hours due to a family member. I work for the state so am always in family court. I am appalled and disgusted with the way Judge Blue runs her courtroom. There is obvious rulings that she makes based on the color of your skin...black, go to jail; white, 2nd chance. How is it ok to throw somebody in jail for being a couple of minutes late. Is that rehabilitation? If they work and have children it is a domino effect. I get that she has to show she is tough, but you have to be fair also and that is what gets you respect.

Judge Blue was so caring and compassionate. She listened to me when I was forced by my big abusive ex to file for a final restraining order. She was so quick to see his true colors and I'm so thankful to her that I'm finally safe and there is nothing more valuable than that. My life has been so peaceful since. Thank you Judge Blue

I'm guessing the positive comments came from idiots like my ex-wife. We were involved in a custody dispute and ex used a TRO as a tool. Judge Blue commented on my daughter, whom she never met and said that I was a horrible person. Why? Because I'm big, and I sat up in my chair and didn't turn on the tears like the ex. Oh yes, she got her FRO but she lost custody of our daughter. Stick that in your pipe Judge Blue.

Bad judge. Can't keep on schedule and ignores directives and court rules related to scheduling (i.e., taking attorney cases first). Doesn't like to sit through trials and makes up her mind before hearing both sides. I've seen her preempt a defense after deciding plaintiff was credible and not even hearing cross examination.

She is absolutely horrible. Granted my ex a FRO that was complete BS. She (ex) knew I was going for custody and got a TSO. Ex started crying and Blue was sympathetic to her. Ordered me for drug and alcohol counseling even though I don't partake in either. I went for a blood test right after for further evidence. She even took my child to task and never met her. Funny thing is, I got custody and the ex was forced into counseling. FU Blue!

This judge is unwilling to challenge her pre-trial bias by asking any questions, unless they feed her bias. She is willing to publicly ridicule people without evidence based on her opinion of their motivation, ignoring the facts or history of the case. She is obviously new and inexperienced, but that doesn't give her a free pass to misquote the tax code, or even settled family law. Unfortunately, if she makes a mistake, and there were plenty, any appeal filed and won would put me right back in front of her where I am sure she would find a new way to express her bias. I've been in front of four Camden County Family Court judges and never before I stood before her have I felt them to be utterly incompetent. New Jersey suffers another setback to full equality for men as parents. It was a sad realization.

NJ318-324 just stop with the PR spin. Judge Blue should be disbarred. In my case she attempted to change my custody order based on my ex's accusations without so much as asking me ONE question. He had NO proof and she never asked for any. i had police reports showing that my ex was lying and other material. she couldve cared less - literally. if it wasnt for my expert attorney finally challenging her, (mind you, she was in mid-change of the order without asking me or my attorney ONE question) she would have committed yet ANOTHER injustice to an innocent party. Blue had the nerve to question my attorney about my right to respond to the accusations. Think im lying.... email me at lynden.george@gmail.com and i will gladly share the transcript. Blue should immediately be disbarred for her lack of respect of the law AND she should be prosecuted for substituting her "clairvoyance" for law that she took and oath to uphold. Whoever had the bright idea to put her anywhere near a bench needs to be tarred and feathered. Any honest poster who endured watching her incompetently analyze cases would never give a 10 rating unless they benefited from her biases. God forbid the day that they are on the honest end of a court case and have go before that woman as she clearly not a judge.

nj#314's post was my identical experience. It was clear after my second encounter with her that her decisions are made before she even listens to any testimony. If you offer any add'l evidence or documents to support your position she simply brushes it off and refuses to even look at it. She tries to cover up for her inexperience with a phony take charge attitude. CLEARLY A MAN EATER!!!!!!!

My encounter with Judge Blue left me with the feeling of great admiration. The way she was impartial when making her decisions showed her drive for justice. She possess the ability to decipher the truth and render her determination once she hears all facts without bias. She was able to use words in conjuction with body language to assist with her judgement. I was more than pleased with how she presided over my case as I was concerned if lies will prevail but when facing Judge Blue, that is definitely not the case.

I found Judge Blue to be intelligent, open minded and non biased. She has a very good understanding of the law and how it should be applied and had the ability to see the truth of the matter. Just because a Judge is new does not mean he/she does not have the ability to understand the law and how th apply it. A new Judge has not had the opportunity to be influenced by other Judges that are biased, etc. Judge Blue's decisions are based on the law, not based on her personal feelings or negative impressions of those that come before her.

I have had the pleasure of observing this Judge off and on for some time now. I was curious about her since she is relativele new. I have found Judge Blue to be very intelligent and motivating. She is in control of her courtroom and does not let the fact that she is relatively new to the bench affect her decisions and demeanor. She appears to be very thorough. My observations have found that she works to find a balance between reality and the law. We need more Judges like her.
