U.S. Judge Mark Pittman of Ft. Worth, TX; ethical troll, repeater
The state of Colorado presented Mark Pittman with a law license in 2018 after he graduated from the University of Oregon School of Law.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit found Mark guilty of engaging in the following misconduct.
FYI: Former President Trump was duped into appointing Mark as a District Court judge in 2019. Mark didn’t get the appointment because he was the most qualified attorney in the greater Houston area, he received it because he had proven to be a reliable lackey for the local political hacks.
The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals found Mark guilty of engaging in the following misconduct.
Mark’s 1st bite at the Judicial Misfit Apple Tree
In one matter, the Court of Appeals called Mark’s dismissal of a lawsuit over a missed filing deadline “overkill” and an abuse of discretion. Mark dismissed a personal injury complaint brought against Spirit Airlines because the plaintiff failed to file a certificate of interested persons on time, which the Court described as an “excessively harsh sanction.”
Mark’s 2nd bite at the Judicial Misfit Apple Tree
In 2021, the Court of Appeals found that Mark wrongly dismissed a discrimination case on his own motion. Mark dismissed the lawsuit because the plaintiff failed to retain local counsel as required by local rules, but the Fifth Circuit said the dismissal “was demonstrably unwarranted” and a lesser sanction was possible.
Mark’s 3rd bite at the Judicial Misfit Apple Tree
In the instances cites above, Mark’s abusive and/or ignorant rulings were overturned by the 5th Circuit. Of course, Mark doesn’t care how many times his asinine rulings are reversed because he is well aware that no federal judge has ever been removed via U.S. Senate impeachment for being abusive
As we speak (ca. January 2024), Mark continues to dispense his so-called idea of jurisprudence as a U.S. District Court Judge in Ft. Worth, Texas. |
