Book excerpt: Professional Code of Ethics: Canon 3E/Rule 2.11(A) -Disqualification may be required if a judge's impartiality might reasonably be questioned if -Presiding over cases involving an attorney with whom the judge had a romantic relationship. There are no accidents. People cross paths for a reason. I'm not sure why ours crossed but within a second, I realized, she could destroy everything. There's a code of ethics in some professions where certain relationships are frowned upon. She's the prosecutor. I'm the judge. Sleeping with her is all sorts of hell no! Ethic review boards could remove me from the bench-as in "You're fired." Even worse, my father would kill me if his name were tainted. But it would kill me more not to have her. They say rules are meant to be broken. But is she worth the risk? The only thing I was sure of-I wanted to completely overrule her perfect little world.

Book Synopsis Her Honor by : LaDoris Hazzard Cordell

Download or read book Her Honor written by LaDoris Hazzard Cordell. This book was released on 2021-10-26. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Her Honor, Judge LaDoris Hazzard Cordell provides a rare and thought-provoking insider account of our legal system, sharing vivid stories of the cases that came through her courtroom and revealing the strengths, flaws, and much-needed changes within our courts. Judge Cordell, the first African American woman to sit on the Superior Court of Northern California, knows firsthand how prejudice has permeated our legal system. And yet, she believes in the system. From ending school segregation to legalizing same-sex marriage, its progress relies on legal professionals and jurors who strive to make the imperfect system as fair as possible. Her Honor is an entertaining and provocative look into the hearts and minds of judges. Cordell takes you into her chambers where she haggles with prosecutors and defense attorneys and into the courtroom during jury selection and sentencing hearings. She uses real cases to highlight how judges make difficult decisions, all the while facing outside pressures from the media, law enforcement, lobbyists, and the friends and families of the people involved. Cordell’s candid account of her years on the bench shines light on all areas of the legal system, from juvenile delinquency and the shift from rehabilitation to punishment, along with the racial biases therein, to the thousands of plea bargains that allow our overburdened courts to stay afloat—as long as innocent people are willing to plead guilty. There are tales of marriages and divorces, adoptions, and contested wills—some humorous, others heartwarming, still others deeply troubling. Her Honor is for anyone who’s had the good or bad fortune to stand before a judge or sit on a jury. It is for true-crime junkies and people who vote in judicial elections. Most importantly, this is a book for anyone who wants to know what our legal system, for better or worse, means to the everyday lives of all Americans.

Eventually, with their unique moniker, Twins for Justice, they became the first identical-twin district court judges to sit on the same bench at the same time in the country. Focusing on restorative justice, their careers were on a meteoric rise until the unexpected and sudden death of Judge Leona Lloyd put an abrupt halt to their successful lives together.
