Judge Lisa Whitmarsh of Morristown York, NY; ethical dwarf

 

The New York Judicial Commission found Judge Whitmarsh guilty of the following misconduct.

 

In one matter, Lisa made comments on her Facebook account about a criminal matter pending in another court.

 

Lisa spoke about a then-pending criminal case in a neighboring town court. The commission said she criticized a town council candidate facing felony, rather than misdemeanor charges, for alleged nominating petition irregularities. (Joel Stashenko, New York Law Journal)

 

Lisa went on to say in her posts that the felony prosecution was a "personal vendetta" against the candidate and that the defendant had "absolutely" no criminal intent.

 

As a direct consequence of her misconduct, the Patron Saints for Judicial Misfits sitting on the New York Judicial Commission punished Lisa by gifting her with a complimentary admonishment.

 

As we speak (ca. January 2017), Lisa continues to sit as a Morristown Town Justice Court judge in York, New York.
