Former Judge Mark Ellis of Houston, TX; idiotic loser

 

The state of Texas provided Herb Ritchie with a law license in 1987 after he graduated from South Texas University School of Law.

 

FYI: South Texas is ranked as the 165th best law school in the country out of 200 ABA (American Bar Association) accredited law schools.

 

The Texas Commission on Judicial Conduct found Mark guilty of the following misconduct.

  • Failed to comply with the law re: bail bond practices
  • Failed to maintain competence in the law (idiot)
  • Violated hearing officers’ authority under Texas law
  • Instructions on bail bond counted as willful and persistent conduct, which wasn’t consistent with Mark’s duties as a judge
  • Conduct cast public discredit on the judiciary
  • Failed to give defendants time to consult with lawyers regarding bail
  • Failed to grant bail within 24 hours of arrest, when allowed by law

As a direct consequence of his misconduct, the enablers for Judicial Misfits sitting on the Texas Supreme Court punished Mark by gifting him with a complimentary public reprimand.

 

As we speak (ca. October 2019), Mark practices with Harris County Universal Services at 406 Caroline Street in Houston, Texas.
