The final court of appeal may yet need to be revived; the, Star Chamber brought forth once again to judge the Nobility.
Gee, that sounds familiar, just like Washington, D.C. Let me guess which political group is shirking their duties - Republicans, perhaps?
Interesting, but it’s interesting also that you signed up at FR today, and posted this. Is this something you are involved with by any chance? Perhaps you have a story to tell about this incredibly evil activity.
I don’t have words for such evil. Perhaps someone should hire the mafia to help out.
Oh Texas, how far you have fallen! This behavior would not have been tolerated a couple of decades ago. First Whacko, and now this, you guys need to “reinvent” ropes.
Not so long ago you'd think this was a made-up quote from some dystopian novel.

Scary. I’ll bet he’s a democrat and worse, a Texas democrat.
Although Texas produces some of the finest conservatives ever, they also have a democrat community that is blatantly criminal.
Are you calling LBJ a crook /s
Consider those that jack-railed Tom Delay.
Consider the Lesbian Mayor of Houston who demanded pastors turn in their sermons to her office for legal review (and where a million bibles were sent in).
I love Texas but there are some people there that need to scope out their future burial plot in one of many dry gulches in the state.
Bingo ...... A Rouge Clintonista BS Barrister needs to be jailed. But Star Chambered judgement would do just fine .
Since part of this story is clearly untrue, I have to wonder if ANY of it is true.
“Furgeson now collects two federal pensions: One from the University of North Texas”.
1. A salary isn’t a pension.
2. The University of North Texas is a state, not a federal institution, and any pay would come from the state institution, not the federal government. ( As a side note, lest you think I’m defending the judge - the school is also unaccredited due to the fine work of Judge Ferguson - his admissions policies and academic standards) http://abovethelaw.com/2016/08/accreditation-woes-for-dallass-first-public-law-school/
Why wasn't this criminal tarred and feathered by the people of Dallas after he uttered these treasonous words?
The reversal on appeal: http://caselaw.findlaw.com/us-5th-circuit/1618712.html
This Baron guy was definitely a “You’ll never take me alive!” type. Of course that doesn’t excuse the judge’s egregious errors.
Reliably transferring the wealth from entrepreneurs to faithful Democrat contributors
Well said. In this case the court of appeals acknowledged that Royal Furgeson “abused his discretion”, but then allowed him to steal all of the assets and distribute it to lawyers who he employed.
It’s more evil than reflected by the story. As with any corruption of this magnitude, whistleblowers risk their lives by disclosing too much publicly.
Wow, just wow.
The granting of immunity to themselves is, IMO, a big tell that “Bad Stuff” was going down there. — Also, that this happened sets a pretty bad precedent, which we all know lawyers love.
