Citizens can speak about judicial complaints

If you file a written complaint about a judge, you can share it publicly at any time. Once the complaint’s subject is public through you, other sources, a judge’s waiver, or other appropriate circumstances, the Judicial Standards Commission may issue limited statements. It can confirm an investigation, explain the process, note the judge’s right to a fair hearing or denial of charges, or say there is not enough evidence for good cause.
