Judge Rules Lindsay Ellis Unbiased in Probate Case

A Superior Court judge has ruled that a probate commissioner acted unethically but there's no evidence she was biased -- not even when she communicated with only one set of lawyers in the Marie Long case, the side that wound up with most of the old lady's money.

However, the judge also found that the supposedly unbiased commissioner, Lindsay Ellis, deprived Marie of a fair trial when she improperly came out of retirement and approved a $233,000 legal bill submitted by one of her forbidden e-mail buddies, attorney Brenda Church.

If you just said, huh?, you're not alone.

The judge was biased or she wouldn't have allowed Marie Long to be exploited by her guardian.

Thanks, Laurie Roberts, for staying on this case and thanks NASGA for doing the same.

And they wonder why everybody makes fun of the legal system.

For shame!
