The article addresses the challenges faced by Judge Pauline Newman, who at 97 years old, encounters significant obstacles in her attempts to work and unseal documents related to her suspension. The prevailing issues stem from rulings involving Chief Judge Kimberly A. Moore, who has been criticized for her handling of the situation. The narrative draws comparisons to Kafkaesque absurdities, emphasizing how bureaucratic processes have become a significant distraction from the core issue: Newman's right to carry out her judicial duties without unnecessary hindrance.
Federal law does not permit a 97-year-old federal appeals judge to unseal documents about her suspension absent consent of the chief judge of her circuit.
It is impossible to fully explain the absurdities of the bureaucratic requirements and delay this award winning jurist has gone through.
