Hahahaha. <br /><br /><br />http://www.judicialselection.us/judicial_selection/methods/removal_of_judges.cfm?state <br /><br />"Florida judges may be removed in one of two ways:<br /><br /> On the recommendation of the judicial qualifications commission, the supreme court may discipline, retire, or remove a judge.<br /><br /> Judges may be impeached by a two-thirds vote of the house of representatives and convicted by a two-thirds vote of the senate."<br /><br />The total of seven cases pending are interesting- two drunks with DUI cases, two violating campaign rules, two engaging in private business on the clock and using government resources to profit, and one a pre-judicial complaint.<br /><br />Given the number of Judges Florida must have, only seven pending cases suggests that the selection process is excellent, the rules are very generous, or people are unwilling to complain. Maybe some of all three.<br />staghoundshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05976667812875074135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-6666865560207832492014-06-04T10:22:19.361-04:002014-06-04T10:22:19.361-04:00Leave of absence and counseling, my left foot.

In their own actual lives, no one has the ability and power to stop them in an act, to say no and make it stick.<br /><br />The only things between a Judge's desires and his actions are his own personal self control and physics. <br /><br /><br /><br />Like Caligula. <br /><br />staghoundshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05976667812875074135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-46566451755972087352014-06-04T10:08:34.863-04:002014-06-04T10:08:34.863-04:00Looks like everybody in the "Justice" sy...Looks like everybody in the "Justice" system is losing it....and when it gets to the point that desperate people see no recourse but to strike back, they'll be called "domestic terrorists"....JohninMd.(HELP?!??)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-36284983362171047652014-06-04T10:05:01.538-04:002014-06-04T10:05:01.538-04:001.
