All the more reason to RE=appoint Dijols using hearsay evidence exclusively to violate someone on their probation. now we know why someone ran against dijols - loser loser loser. If the tax payers only knew how much momey is exhausted on an appeal like this that could have been avoided for this elementary criminal law 101 they would have never gave him the votes he got in the first place.
Lots of judges do what Dijols did - just more of Pedro's bad luck to get called out on it
What votes? He's made his bed. Now he can deal with the harsh reality of going to work.
I was in Dijols Courtroom for a final on this day and I remember that this girl scored non state prison and Dijols sentenced her to FSP for 3 years based on hearsay. This is one of the reasons he got opposition and one of the main reasons he is no longer a judge.
Dijols was a sorry lawyer and an even worse judge. Good riddance! The people have spoken Pedro! During this slow period at the courthouse, you should be packing your bags!!!!!!!!!!!
Eek. Gardiner reversed and remanded by pro-se litigant/appellant. WOW, that's a slap in the face.
answer12:32 now you know her biased rulings need to be reversed. She used peoples lives to seek and impress for promotions. Its time someone looked into all her rulings, and see her biases, for whatever her reasons may be. Wake up ANA if you want mercy, and we never know when we are going to need it, we have to give where it is warranted, and rule with descretion, and not to please our friends. or promote ourselves. Things come back at various times to slap us in the face. Her cases need to be really scrutinized.
David Krathen is one of the best and brightest. He was an excellent trial attorney and should be handling complex civil cases. Why is his talent being wasted in Dependency Court?
krathen is another arrogant putz, he would not even grant a hearing for a pro se motion against 4th ruling which jd tuter not only granted hearing but ruled in pro se's favor.i still find it hard to believe there is not more downside to abuses of discretion than to collect a vreputation for them and then possibly be voted out.just not enough potential punishment for asa's / judges who ruin lives w/ arrogance/stupidity and lack of preperation, knowledge of laws and integrity to say nothing of the humility it takes to admit they are wrong
Look..... I'm not going to debate it with you but Judge Krathen is very bright, very thoughtful and very conscientious. He was an outstanding litigator and I can assure you doesn't NEED the 140k salary and all the crap that goes along with it.
You sound like an angry pro se litigant or an unprepared attorney to me.
i'm the first, w/ an MBA, got 720 on lsat,sold bed pans instead of law school , got beat in divorce ct, tired of attys, know how to read a simple sentence, know that maden & kuklehan are 2 4th rulings that say i'm entitled to hearings, jd krathen refused and was wrong. thats all i know, he might be a great everything but he was wrong and did/would not admit it. no big deal, jd tuter took care of it, but he surely is not infailable.
Beacuse he is dealing with human lives~specifically with children. Perhaps you believe he should be presiding over foreclosures or divorces!

Heard Goldenberg was up at 4DCA as a rotating appellate judge and attys were commenting on how rude she was to attys arguing before her. Why would appellate judges allow her to treat members of the bar that way if it is true? any comments or anyone know the real story?
I heard that the judge rotate on how goes as a judge for one month to the 4th. Hope goldenberg enjoys it since this will be the nearest she gets to the 4th besides being reversed.
Yes judges rotate for a month to the 4 dca.
how does this goldenberg kuunt get away w/ it over and over?? esp in family, how dare she run roughshod over families already in hurt, what does she get, pleasure in adding to the misery? go suck up to michael bolton u ugly old MOT, but leave our families alone
"Yes judges rotate for a month to the 4 dca."
Must have been interesting when Lucky Larry Seidlin was up there.
