A probate judge handles estate settlements, disputes over wills, etc. Not exactly the business of federal courts, I would think.

Judges there are elected to six-year terms.

Oakland County’s chief probate judge is facing a domestic violence charge, according to officials.
The Oakland County Prosecutor’s Office said Thursday that Hon. Kathleen Ann Ryan was arrested and charged for allegedly assaulting her boyfriend Wednesday night.
Judge Ryan was charged Thursday with one count of domestic assault and battery, officials said. She has reportedly been released on a personal bond.
“The fact that Ms. Ryan is an elected official did not play any part in the charge that was authorized, and will not play any part in the handling or disposition of this case,” said Oakland County Prosecutor Karen McDonald. “The case will be handled like any other case.”
No other details have been released at this time.

Oakland County Probate Judge Kathleen Ryan was taken off her docket this week – and put on leave, indefinitely.

She is under investigation sources say, for an inappropriate relationship with a man, who also works at the Oakland County courts.

On top of that, there is allegedly evidence of additional misconduct by the judge.

The evidence will now go to the judicial tenure commission, who will make a recommendation to the Michigan Supreme Court regarding the investigation.

She sounds like a train wreck waiting to happen.

What's an appropriate forum for her? Der Volksgerichtshof?

because Chief Justice Roberts told me that there is no longer any discrimination and therefore no need for laws or review of proposed legislation/conduct involving certain groups.
