Comments

Civil Litigation - Private

Comment #: TX933
Rating:2.9

Comments:
Judge Storey received the lowest local judge ratings for years, because she is angry, unfair, and extremely pro-business judge who should never be allowed to wear a robe again. She allowed clearly falsified evidence into trial and said, "it'll make for lively cross-examination," or words to that effect. How about doing your job? She has been heartless toward children in court, and downright disrespectful toward lawyers whose credentials put her to shame. She is a big bully. She will never be re-elected, let's hope.

Judge Storey has been on the bench for many years now I am surprised no one has rated her on this site. Judge Storey runs a tight ship and I appreciate that. She does not let bench-trials run on when they do not need to which keeps her heavy docket moving. She can be moody on the bench but I never sense it interferes with her impartiality. I like that she is a stickler for procedure and that she is not afraid to call out lawyers who are sloppy in this regard. Her knowledge of the law is unmatched compared to her cohorts in the other three County Courts at Law. I hope the voters keep her on the bench next cycle and she is not swept out by mindless voters who vote the democratic ticket for judges.
