I actually happen to have sat in this judge’s court. She’s an in you face, hands on hips, rocking her head from side to side, “Say WHAT!?” kind of black woman. She was appointed by Democratic governor Lawton Childs who gave us some incredibly bad judges.
Interestingly, I sat through several black divorce cases and she never, once, listened to anything the man had to say all the way through. She was incredibly unfair, even to black men. But a black woman would get anything she wanted, no matter how ridiculous. When this judge stands for election, she has huge posters showing her from the knees up with her hands on hips and holding a gavel and this Judge Judy expression on her face. It’s almost farcical.
It is sad that judges like that are allowed to discriminate against men. Unfortunately, I’ve known quite a few men who’s lives were ruined in divorce court.
The judge who ruled in favor of Rachel Canning regarding healthcare coverage is Morris County Court Judge Peter Bogaard. He's a white male.
