Former Judge George Groneman of Kansas City, KS; ethical troll

The state of Kansas provided George A. Groneman (GAG) with a law license in 1969 after he graduated from the University of Missouri School of Law.

The Kansas Commission on Judicial Conduct found George guilty of engaging in the following misconduct, all of which took place while he was sitting as a Wyandotte County 29th Judicial District Court judge.

• Failed to avoid impropriety and the appearance of impropriety
• Failed to participate in establishing, maintaining, and enforcing high standards of conduct
• Failed to personally observe high standard of integrity
• Failed to respect and comply with the law (scofflaw)
• Failed to act with due diligence (slacker)
• Failed to act in manner promoting public confidence in the integrity and impartiality of the judiciary
• Improperly lent the prestige of his judicial office to advance his private interests or that of others
• Failed to perform the duties of his judicial office impartially
• Failed to diligently discharge his administrative responsibilities without bias or prejudice
• Failed to maintain professional competence in judicial administration (moron)
• Failed to cooperate with other judges and court officials in the administration of court business
• Failed to require staff, court officials and others subject to his direction and control to observe the standards of fidelity and diligence that applied to him
• Failed to refrain from manifesting bias or prejudice in the performance of his official duties
• Improperly approved compensation of appointees beyond the fair value of services rendered

As a direct consequence of him misconduct, the comedians sitting on the Judicial Conduct Commission punished George by gifting him with a complimentary censure.

As we speak (ca. June 2023), George practices his so-called brand of law at 1814 North 78^th Terrace in Kansas City, Kansas.
