A Call to Remove Judge Stephanie Boyd from the Bench

The Issue

Mission Statement: To uphold the integrity of the judiciary by ensuring that those who preside over our legal system demonstrate the temperament, impartiality, and professional conduct required by the Code of Judicial Conduct.

Statement of Purpose
This petition formally requests a comprehensive review of Judge Stephanie Boyd’s fitness for the bench. We seek a formal investigation into her conduct to determine if removal or disciplinary action is warranted based on a documented pattern of behavior that undermines the dignity of the court.

The judiciary holds the immense power to restrict an individual’s freedom and rights; therefore, the person wielding that power must remain fair and composed. Judge Boyd has consistently demonstrated a lack of judicial temperament, characterized by:

A Pattern of Disrespect: Numerous public records and recordings show a consistent lack of professional courtesy toward those appearing before the court.


Improper Judicial Temperament: Her conduct frequently borders on verbal hostility, failing to meet the standards of patience and dignity required of a judge.


Erosion of Public Trust: A judge’s role is to serve the law with impartiality. When power is used to demean rather than to adjudicate fairly, the public’s confidence in the legal system is compromised.


We, the people, call for the appropriate oversight bodies to hold Judge Stephanie Boyd accountable and to restore the standards of respect and justice within our legal system.
