An update in the Family Court Judge Search Saga. We recently obtained a report from the West Virginia Office of Disciplinary Counsel which found that a West Virginia Family Court Judge made improper and false allegations about the judicial disciplinary prosecutors who have been prosecuting a fellow Family Court Judge, Louise Goldston. The ODC investigation commenced after a sitting Family Court Judge, Judge Glen R. Stotler, of the 23rd Family Court Circuit (Hampshire, Mineral and Morgan Counties), also a member of the Judicial Hearing Board that heard the Goldston case, sent a March 25, 2021 letter (on his official court letterhead) to the Chief Justice of the WV Supreme Court, making numerous allegations against the judicial prosecutors in regards to their handling of the Goldston case, and ultimately requesting an investigation into their actions, as well as their termination, “or at the least a serious reprimand.” Now, questions are raised, not only about the Family Court Judge who is the subject of the report, but others who are now involved in the debunked allegations against the prosecutors. It really is outrageous, and people deserve to know. Did it ever seem like a good idea to get involved in a disciplinary prosecution of a fellow judge and attempt to have the prosecutors fired? What are the potential remedies? Judicial disciplinary complaints? Impeachment proceedings? Up on the website today, we posted the full ODC investigation report, which details the entire ordeal up to that point, including a discussion of some of the sworn statements taken of the judges involved. It also gives a rare behind-the-scenes look at the judicial disciplinary prosecution procedures, which are usually confidential: https://thecivilrightslawyer.com/2021/08/09/report-family-court-judge-made-improper-and-false-allegations/ Media report: https://wvrecord.com/stories/606519870-lawyer-disciplinary-board-finds-no-merit-to-complaints-against-judicial-disciplinary-counsel
