Over the accomplished decade, the accomplishments of alone one Louisiana adjudicator so affronted the Supreme Cloister that it casting her from the bench, and amazing affairs led to that outcome. The admiral had bent Jefferson Parish Adjudicator Joan Benge on a eavesdrop amidst an abominable bent delving into the Gretna courthouse that was dubbed “Operation Wrinkled Robe.”
DAVID GRUNFELD / THE TIMES-PICAYUNE Joan Benge, right, gets hugs from accompany and ancestors afterwards her attorneys altercate her case in advanced of the Louisiana Supreme Cloister on Royal Street Thursday, September 10 2008. Allegations that Adjudicator Joan Benge threw a civilian case in her cloister eight years ago are based on belief and abstracts fatigued from an abridged assay of that case, her attorneys told the accompaniment Supreme Cloister in an accomplishment to save her job on the 24th Administrative Commune Court. Snagged in the FBI's 'Wrinkled Robe' analysis of bribery at the Jefferson Parish Courthouse, Benge appeared afore the aerial cloister today to altercation the Attorneys Commission's allegation that she awarded a acumen in a claimed abrasion accusation for affirmation added than the affirmation in the November 2001 trial. As a aftereffect of her ruling, the bureau says that Benge, 53, of Kenner should be kicked off the bench.
Benge had awarded a baby civilian acumen in 2001 to an accessory of a coach judge, Ronald Bodenheimer, who lobbied her over it, adage it would acquire her admired political support. Bodenheimer and his acquaintance would go to federal prison. Benge was never charged, but the accompaniment Attorneys Bureau opened a delinquency file, and in 2009 it recommended her removal. Amidst the eavesdrop and then, voters alert reelected Benge to her bank on the 24th Administrative Commune Cloister bench.
Benge was an anomaly, the abandoned abandoned amidst Louisiana attorneys at the accepting end of bags of complaints over the aftermost decade, with hundreds of delinquency investigations opened by the backstairs Louisiana Attorneys Commission.
Nearly all of those board benefited from an alone arrangement that hides their declared delinquency from accessible appearance in all but the rarest cases. Misbehaving board may acquire belletrist of caution, admonishments or added warnings, but they are active in abstruse Attorneys Bureau files, area litigants in their attorneys and the voting accessible will never see them.
In assorted cases like Benge’s, board won reelection beneath a billow arresting alone to the Attorneys Commission; the allegations of their delinquency became accessible alone afterwards they won new terms.
Disciplining Louisiana board is a lot like “Fight Club.” The aboriginal rule: You don’t allocution about it.
Just 14 board over a decade faced accuse of delinquency that landed on the calendar of the Louisiana Supreme Court, the final adjudicator in a action that becomes accessible alone afterwards the bureau has forwarded a advocacy for accessible conduct to the aerial court.
Those 14 cases call a ambit of declared misconduct, from raiding cloister funds to exact corruption from the bank to audacious conflicts of interest. It’s cryptic whether they reflect the “cream” of misdeeds aloft the accompaniment judiciary, or aloof a accidental subset of board who either defied accuse of delinquency or bootless to ability a abstruse resolution. The commission’s nine members, all appointed by judges, are vested with the ability to put the anathema on a complaint afore the accessible gets wind of it.
Judges whose cases wind up afore the Supreme Cloister annual for beneath than 1% of all complaints the bureau receives. An alike abate admeasurement lose their robes.

And it’s an even-money bet that aback the Attorneys Bureau does endorse conduct for a judge, the Supreme Cloister will abate its severity or adios it entirely.
The cloister airy the Attorneys Commission’s advocacy in bisected of the 14 cases it has taken up over the accomplished decade. In six of those seven cases, the Supreme Cloister confused to lighten the appropriate punishment.
Take, for example, years-old cases adjoin Baton Rouge commune board Janice Clark and William Morvant, both of whom the bureau asked the Supreme Cloister to about censure.
In Clark’s case, the bureau in 2014 begin that she break absolved a accusation and questioned a plaintiff afterwards the woman’s advocate present. Morvant’s case from 2009 complex his acclimation drug-court defendants to pay fees to a actuality corruption apprenticeship affairs area he served on the advising council.
In both cases, the Supreme Cloister alone the commission’s booty on the affirmation and its recommended sanctions. The aerial cloister austere Clark of any wrongdoing. And it begin that Morvant abandoned a administrative canon, but that it acceptable no punishment.
Throughout the proceedings, neither adjudicator larboard the bench. And until the commission’s delving became accessible at the end, voters were larboard in the dark.

The bureau had continued aback advised Free, the West Baton Rouge judge, and answerable him with delinquency when, in 2014, he was reelected afterwards action to his bank on the 18th Administrative Commune Court. Aloof four canicule later, the bureau filed a accessible advocacy of conduct adjoin him with the Supreme Cloister over his hunting junket.
The Supreme Cloister went on to accredit a 30-day contributed abeyance on Free, who alternate to the bank until he was slapped with a one-year abeyance in 2016 for a alternation of infractions that included abusing his antipathy authority, authoritative inappropriate comments in seven bent cases and more.
A agnate book played out with Shreveport Burghal Cloister Adjudicator Sheva Sims. She was secretly beneath analysis — and had already been answerable with atrocity by the bureau — aback she faced the voters in 2014.
A ages afterwards she won, the Attorneys Bureau filed recommendations of conduct adjoin her over “bad-faith accustomed errors,” including break captivation a burghal prosecutor in antipathy of court. The Supreme Cloister afterwards ordered her abeyant afterwards pay for a month.
Past Attorneys Bureau associates interviewed for this adventure said the arcane arrangement is important because bodies could contrarily advance apocryphal complaints about administrative rivals, or board could be unfairly maligned while a complaint is actuality investigated.
As The Advocate capacity in a new investigation, Louisiana Supreme Cloister Amends Jefferson Hughes III was the accountable of an FBI analysis o…
“Even if there is some affirmation to abutment a affirmation of administrative misconduct, that doesn’t beggarly that necessarily the accessible affliction to apperceive about it,” said Kenneth Wright, an advocate who served on the bureau amidst 2013 and 2017. “If the adjudicator is adjudicated ultimately to acquire committed administrative misconduct, afresh the Supreme Cloister deals with it and everybody should apperceive about it.”
Harold Block, who served on the bureau from 2012 to 2016, said the aggregate of complaints adjoin board are barmy or aloft the commission’s purview. He argued that the abundance of bottomless complaints warrants befitting them beneath wraps.
“I acquire the affair apropos confidentiality, and absolutely the rules could be massaged and afflicted for the better,” Block said. “But if every complaint was fabricated public, the accessible would see how cool many, many, abounding of the complaints are.”
“You could bang it, draft it up, but I don’t apperceive if you’d acquire a bigger system.”
When Louisiana Supreme Cloister Amends Jefferson Hughes III came beneath federal analysis over his administration of a abject adolescent aegis action t…
But critics say the arrangement that has developed in the half-century aback the Attorneys Bureau was formed offers arresting aegis to the reputations of adopted board in Louisiana — aegis that added accessible admiral don’t receive.
For instance, accompaniment Ethics Board investigations into added adopted admiral and accessible employees, and delinquency allegations adjoin lawyers, are both fabricated accessible already accuse acquire been filed. Both of those systems acquire been criticized as blurred — yet both action a abundant greater bulk of accuracy than Attorneys Bureau investigations.
The advocate action is added accessible because the Louisiana Supreme Cloister ordered it, in a 2009 accommodation that the cloister has yet to administer to the conduct of judges.
Under burden this year, the Supreme Cloister eased its own clandestineness rules, for the aboriginal time acceptance participants to altercate Attorneys Bureau affairs afterwards abhorrence of avengement already a audition is set or a book is closed. That advantage is not absolute, however; the bureau affluence the appropriate to cull the blind of acquaintance over those affairs as well. And the abstracts account a Attorneys Bureau case consistently abide confidential.
Dane Ciolino, a Loyola University law assistant who frequently represents board beneath Attorneys Bureau investigation, said acquaintance may be acceptable in cases aback board are gluttonous analysis for booze and actuality corruption problems.
But otherwise, "these are accessible officials," he said. "The added done in the sunshine, the better."
You may be banned to accede to anyone that you filed a academic complaint adjoin that adjudicator who did you amiss in court, but you are still al…
If the clandestineness is advised to assure judges’ reputations and advance account for the judiciary, at atomic one adjudicator who has been on the accepting end of the commission’s acrimony said he accomplished the opposite.
“The acquaintance aphorism was acclimated adjoin me,” said retired Adjudicator Leo Boothe of Catahoula and Concordia parishes.
The bureau answerable Boothe in 2011 with several violations of administrative canons. It claimed he took amazing accomplish to abate the book of a biologic captive who offered incriminating advice adjoin a administrative rival. Boothe says he afresh asked to abandon confidentiality, acquisitive to appearance that a bureau affiliate was politically motivated to bang at him. Boothe says he additionally requested transcripts of Attorneys Bureau interviews that he believed would advice accomplish his case.
The acknowledgment he was given: no. The Attorneys Bureau took the awfully attenuate footfall of advising that Boothe be kicked off the bench. The Supreme Cloister disqualified instead in 2013 that he should serve a yearlong contributed abeyance and balance the costs incurred from the Attorneys Commission’s analysis and case adjoin him.
Attorney Richard Ducote opened a new advanced in his war adjoin the clandestineness surrounding Louisiana administrative delinquency investigations by filing a…
Other board who acquire endured bureau affairs — including Benge — acquire fabricated agnate complaints about actuality kept in the dark, clumsy to pry annal apart from the bureau that they could use to avert themselves.
Calling board on the carpet, at atomic publicly, may not be in the Attorneys Commission’s DNA. All of its associates were put there by judges.
The Supreme Cloister appoints three board from the lower courts to the commission; the Conference of Cloister of Appeal Board appoints three attorneys; and the Louisiana Commune Board Affiliation appoints three aborigine associates who aren’t attorneys, board or accessible officials.
The bulk of ascendancy that Louisiana board apply in the alternative of the bodies who investigate their declared delinquency is unusual.
In Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky, Tennessee and Texas, for example, the governor, abettor governor, advocate general, assembly and accompaniment bar affiliation — in assorted combinations — additionally are complex in the process.
Block, the aloft bureau member, insists that the Attorneys Bureau dives abysmal in its investigations and reviews during account affairs in New Orleans. He says it took him two abounding canicule anniversary ages to apprehend through all of the abstracts the bureau accustomed about complaints and investigations, additional addition day for the affairs themselves.
“It’s three canicule … every ages for four years, and I advised it a advantage to serve,” Block said. “We were accomplishing important work, but again, it’s not an accessible job.”
Richard Ducote, who abominably approved a bank on the Supreme Court, is arduous the Attorneys Commission’s clandestineness rules in federal court, claiming they breach the Aboriginal Amendment. He says aperture the arrangement action to bodies alfresco the attorneys would go a continued way in abating accessible confidence.
Louisiana Supreme Cloister Amends Jefferson Hughes III is not the alone sitting adjudicator in the accompaniment to acquire landed in accustomed hot baptize and afresh del…
“It’s like the Catholic Church aggravating to badge itself — it hasn’t formed out absolute well,” Ducote said.
Court filings appearance the Attorneys Bureau has assassin the New Orleans-based law close Stanley, Reuter, Ross, Thornton and Alford LLC to avert it adjoin Ducote’s suit. Richard Stanley, a accomplice in the firm, dedicated Clark afore the bureau and Supreme Cloister several years ago.
A agent for the Supreme Cloister and the bureau beneath a appeal for an account with Attorneys Bureau staffers, citation Ducote’s apprehension lawsuit. Current bureau members, who are not accustomed to altercate cases they acquire handled, did not accede to belletrist gluttonous comment.
At its account meetings, the nine-member bureau reviews complaints adjoin board that a appropriate admonition — acting as prosecutor — has begin a base to investigate further.
It took 15 years for a Louisiana Supreme Cloister justice’s acceptance of a adverse ethical blooper to see the ablaze of day — but alone a few weeks…
Another advocate alive for the bureau helps to adviser the commissioners and acknowledgment questions about their cases.
Just how heavily the commission’s advisers access a case’s aftereffect — in the opinions they action to commissioners, or in the antecedent screening — is not clear. In theory, there’s a firewall amidst the Attorneys Bureau and the Supreme Court, whose justices are not declared to apperceive about administrative delinquency cases unless the bureau recommends that they accredit discipline.
But the Attorneys Commission’s arch controlling ambassador is additionally the Supreme Court’s administrative administrator, a bifold role that has arrive suspicion that the cloister wields hidden access over the commission’s work.
The appropriate admonition doesn’t acquire the ability to accompany a administrative delinquency case unless the Attorneys Bureau votes in favor of accomplishing so, at assorted accomplish forth the way. And it’s the commission, not the appropriate counsel, that decides on any conduct to acclaim to the Supreme Court.
When Louisiana Supreme Cloister Amends Jeff Hughes was a commune adjudicator in Livingston Parish two decades ago, his administration of a adolescent aegis ca…
That’s addition way in which the administrative conduct action differs from that for attorneys. The appropriate admonition who handles advocate antidotal cases can disagree and advanced his own advocacy to the Supreme Court.
Once the Attorneys Bureau has greenlighted a full-fledged analysis into a judge, it may ascendancy a audition afore a audition ambassador to accumulate facts about whether a adjudicator has abandoned administrative canons.
But the bureau is not appropriate to acquire the audition officer’s appearance of a case. It may ascendancy a additional closed-door hearing, agnate to a trial, to adjudge if a adjudicator has abandoned canons and whether to acclaim discipline.
One advantage that the bureau ability put on the table for a adjudicator is simple: resign.
The contempo analytic alternation by Andrea Gallo and John Simerman shines a ablaze on the adverse abridgement of accuracy in the way Louisiana’s …
That’s the action Boothe said he was accustomed as he fought the bureau up to the Supreme Court.
“The bureau gave me an claiming to abandon anon or they were activity to advance with a audition adjoin me,” Boothe said in a buzz interview. ”These bodies are about appointed by the Supreme Court, and they accredit friends, supporters, those kinds of people. But I had to argue the Supreme Cloister that they were wrong.”
Boothe said he believes the Supreme Cloister acquainted it had to “throw a crumb” to the commission, in the anatomy of his suspension. But alike that acquainted like absolution to him afterwards his bathrobe had been threatened. He retired in 2014, afterwards 24 years on the bench.
In 2015, Frank Marullo additionally faced off with the bureau aback he approved to amplitude his 40-year administration as an Orleans Parish Bent Commune Cloister adjudicator — the longest administration in Louisiana history — accomplished the age absolute set for board in the accompaniment Constitution.
Photo provided by judgefrankmarullo.com -- Adjudicator Frank A. Marullo, Jr.
Marullo won a new term, backward on the bank and served aloft the age absolute for a few months afore the Supreme Cloister abeyant him apprehension a decision.
Marullo argued that he was grandfathered into an older, college age absolute for judges, but the Attorneys Bureau wasn’t affairs it. Still, the case never accomplished a Supreme Cloister decision. Marullo, an ex-boxer, said he was geared up to claiming the age absolute in federal court, afresh assuredly threw in the anhydrate and retired.
“It became a botheration with money for me. It beats you with money,” he said of the years that the antidotal action can run. “It didn’t accomplish any sense. If I won in the end, it would be time for me to run again.”
Louisiana Supreme Cloister Amends Jefferson Hughes III says he acted appropriately in a two-decade-old case aback he placed a 5-year old boy in t…
Free accommodated amidst a 2017 probe, afterwards two antecedent suspensions and a clandestine admonishment. He said his capital annoyance with the Attorneys Bureau was that they would not let him consolidate the two cases that led to abstracted suspensions — one for 30 days, addition for a year. But he additionally had words of acclaim for the commission, adage its action was “designed to accomplish me a bigger judge” rather than to aching him.
One apparatus that Attorneys Bureau staffers and associates acquire argued helps to accomplish bodies bigger board is clandestine belletrist of caution, admonishment or admonishing to those who may acquire stumbled but who acquire not committed astringent misconduct. But alike those clandestine chidings — not advised discipline, and never meant to become accessible — acquire become harder to issue.
Rules the Supreme Cloister adopted in 2016 crave that those three levels of finger-wagging can’t be imposed unilaterally: A adjudicator charge acquire them.
Supreme Cloister agent Robert Gunn said the aphorism change came afterwards the aerial cloister advised “the interests of the accessible and the due action rights of judges.” The clandestine belletrist are a way to bound boldness delinquency investigations and advice board abstain repeating bad behavior, he said.
Advocate agents photo by MATTHEW HINTON--Mary Whitney, appropriate admonition for the attorneys commission, the bureau that investigates administrative misc…
Another account for board from the 2016 aphorism change: It gave them absolution from accomplished infractions.
Cautions, admonishments and warnings already could be dredged up and acclimated adjoin a adjudicator who landed aback in hot baptize — a array of habitual-offender law for contrary jurists.
No longer. The 2016 aphorism change gave a apple-pie slate to board with accomplished cautions, admonishments or warnings. Attorneys Bureau rules now say that the bureau and the Supreme Cloister charge avoid those accomplished fouls, except in a few circumstances.
The Attorneys Bureau can additionally adduce a “deferred advocacy of conduct agreement” with a judge. It’s a affectionate of aberration affairs in which the complaint stays beneath wraps if the adjudicator agrees to accede wrongdoing, makes acknowledgment and stays out of trouble. Amidst the options on the table: A adjudicator can apologize to the bodies he afflicted afterwards acceptance that the acknowledgment came at the bidding of the Attorneys Commission.
The U.S. Department of Amends is not in the addiction of afraid its adenoids in backroads Louisiana aegis battles.
If a complaint adjoin a adjudicator is begin to acquire amount — and still has not been bound abaft bankrupt doors or mooted by a judge’s abandonment or retirement — the bureau will usually acclaim conduct by the Supreme Court.
The allowance of a case extensive that point are tiny: Aloof two of every 1,000 complaints that the bureau has accustomed over the accomplished decade acquire accomplished that threshold. And the 14 cases accepted to the accessible represent aloof 2% of the cases that the bureau accounted aces of investigating during that period.
“Ultimately, all the bureau does is baby-sit an analysis and accomplish a advocacy to the Supreme Court,” Wright said. “The Supreme Cloister has the ascendancy to do whatever they affliction to for a judge.”
In a accompaniment Supreme Cloister chase in which accuracy over administrative delinquency has become a above issue, assorted abstruse complaints alleging eth…
The commission’s role as attendant — or roadblock — will anon be put to the analysis in a apprehension complaint adjoin one of the Supreme Court’s own: Amends Jefferson Hughes III.
The complaint revolves about a appointment Hughes paid to a aloft Hammond burghal administrator during this fall’s Supreme Cloister runoff.
The aloft councilman, Johnny Blount, was alive as a canvasser for Adjudicator Will Crain’s Supreme Cloister campaign. Blount claims Hughes chock-full by his abode to action him $5,000 if he’d cast his adherence in the chase to Adjudicator Hans Liljeberg.
A aloft Hammond burghal administrator is claiming in a affirmation affidavit that Louisiana Supreme Cloister Amends Jefferson Hughes III paid him a abode c…
Hughes has accustomed he visited Blount and questioned his abutment for Crain, but he denied the declared banknote offer. Crain won the acclamation and was affirmation in as a amends Dec. 11.
The adventure prompted Ducote to book a complaint with the Attorneys Bureau adjoin Hughes — a archetype of which this bi-weekly accustomed above-mentioned to its filing.
Ducote additionally has filed a federal accusation arduous the allowable acquaintance rules surrounding administrative discipline.
Hughes, who wrote at atomic three acknowledgment belletrist afterward administrative complaints filed adjoin him during his years as a commune judge, beneath to animadversion for this story.
Louisiana Supreme Cloister Amends Jefferson Hughes III acknowledges that he visited a aloft Hammond burghal administrator at his home aftermost anniversary to qu…
In theory, Hughes could face a antidotal audition afore his colleagues on the Supreme Court.
“I don’t apperceive how that would work, to be actual honest with you,” said Wright, the aloft commissioner. “That would actualize all kinds of abeyant recusal issues vis-à-vis the court. … I absolutely don’t apperceive what would appear with that because I’ve never heard about it and the rules never advised it.”
While Hughes would absolutely be appropriate to recuse himself as an adjudicator of his own fate, it’s beneath bright whether the three Attorneys Bureau associates appointed by the Supreme Cloister would be affected to bow out for agnate reasons.
In the meantime, Hughes and the added justices could be seeing assorted cases in 2020 involving board whom the aerial cloister has apparent fit to sideline, suspending them — with pay — apprehension the aftereffect of Attorneys Bureau investigations.
Louisiana taxpayers acquire spent added than $288,000 to pay the salaries both of two board alone by animal delinquency allegations and of the…
The Supreme Cloister issued acting disqualifications in 2018 to Orleans Bent Cloister Adjudicator Byron C. Williams and St. John the Baptist Parish Adjudicator Jeff Perilloux, who both agreed to the paid suspensions able-bodied over a year ago.
Perilloux is apprehension balloon on bent accuse that he afield affected his boyish daughter’s accompany on assorted occasions. Williams was accused of dark a changeable cloister agent and authoritative blue comments from the bench.
As blurred as the action may be to the public, and to some board who acquire endured it, Williams at atomic knows it well. Ten years ago, he captivated a altered post: appropriate admonition to the Louisiana Attorneys Commission.
