Today we filed a motion for summary judgment in the federal civil rights lawsuit against Family Court Judge Louise Goldston, arguing that she should be denied judicial immunity, as well as foreclosed from even arguing at trial that her actions didn’t violate the Constitution. In other words, the jury trial in her case should be limited to the issue of damages only. It’s unusual for the plaintiff in a lawsuit to file such a motion, but in this case, not only were her actions caught on video, but also already declared by the West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals to have been unlawful and unethical.
On March 1, 2022, I finally had the opportunity to take Defendant Goldston’s deposition, which marked the 4th time she has testified under oath about the matter, by my count. The first several times she testified in her judicial disciplinary proceedings, when she was still facing possible suspension by the Supreme Court, she admitted that she made mistakes and acted unlawfully, and that she had violated multiple canons of judicial ethics. During her deposition however, with threat of suspension behind her, she was completely defiant, testifying that she is essentially above the law; that she doesn’t believe she did anything wrong; that the Supreme Court was wrong; that the disciplinary authorities engaged in a conspiracy against her; that she doesn’t regret threatening to arrest Mr. Gibson; and that she might even “do it again.” You really have to read it to believe it, which is why I’ve also attached the transcript of her deposition, at the link:

Judge's do not have immunity I don't care who you are everyone follows the laws not just civilians
She's done this several times so her lawyers might have reminded her she'll be facing lots of other lawsuits if she doesn't somehow justify it.
She should have been removed and barred from ever being a judge again. She should have gone to jail for her crimes against the Constitution.
This is a well orchestrated plan to circumvent the constitution by judges. If this doesn’t work they will try it again. A lot of district attorneys and judges campaign money comes from George Soros .
Why even have a constitution, the entire court system has immunity and is above law. We live in a 3 tier justice tier 1 is for the poor that have to depend on a public pretender and must follow every detail of the law (tier 2 ) for the rich who can afford a legal team and pay all the fees still has to follow most laws but has access to constitutional rights (tier 3) for politicians , most people in the justice system and those well connected to the political system such as children of politicians etc . Most of the time tier 2 and tier 3 apply to the political class . That’s the world we live in like it not. A lot of times with wars your just trading one tyrant for another because of imperfection no system of government will work as they all have failed. It’s true mankind cannot even guide his own footsteps
Sound familiar? MAGA teachings maybe?
How are you going to bring down the family without corrupt judges? They have Carte Blanche!
You think yours are bad? In Canada judges are mostly members of the Kazarian brotherhood. They are the worst child abusers on the planet
Well she may be a judge but does not stop her from being a liar. She sounds like an old witch who would lie even if it meant someone would die. In my age group we call that diaper dementia.
Isn’t that armed robbery?
She needs to be removed from the bench. An investigation needs the started on her colleagues as well. Reform family court in WV.
Where can I read the transcript? I looked at the link and there isn't another link with her deposition on it
This judge is a fine example of a tyrant of the first order. The rest of the judges look on with admiration with backing from the idiots amoungst us. If she succeeds in getting Judicial Immunity it will only enbolden them and gives us just one more ligitimate reason to eyeball our 2nd ammendment. This type of attitude from our servents has to be put in check.
Child services or family is not A COURT, title 4 is a executive branch
During deposition, the judge should have been asked why she completely changed her attitude, and if it was because she was afraid of being suspended and lied to the review board about being sorry for what she admitted was a total violation of the law. She should be eliminated one way or another.
Judicial arrogance is a huge problem, period. Very tired of it- abusive practices, abusive behavior, and abuse of just about anyone in the courtroom, and usually done with impunity. Bizarre sentence without any legal foundations, legal reasoning that amounts to "because i said so."
But she's a woman and women are NEVER wrong!!!
Only when judges, DAs, and LEOs start getting Babbitts for their violations of our rights and persons, will the tyranny cease!
Joke's on her now. I'm having 87 laughs at her expense.
Your laws are not proper. How do you fix that
Blah blah, nothing happened to her at all.
