We just had a civil case with him as judge and he told the attorneys they would be done by a certain time on his last day and the case would be finished and the jurors heard that and were moved to complete their decision so that he could be done.
Can’t believe he was only found to be unqualified in one area. He does not know the law, the rules of civil procedure, the rules of evidence, or the rules of ethics. Not sure how he was elected 6 years ago, but if he gets re-elected, then watch out.
Then tere’s THIS – HUGE expose in another print media outlet this morning (Sat) also involving Rep/attorney Rutherford in shaving off years from yet another criminal serving time …….. THere’s an issue with judges, to be sure. But Mr. Rutherford’s name is too-frequently associated with these early releases.

It is also hard to fathom why Hughston’s cronies have always protected hin from getting his narcissistic ass thrown off the bench.
Having court records altered to cover for his out of order statements is nothing to sneeze at.
Even now General Counsel for Ckemson U once said that hundreds of lawyers were sick of the system but if they spoke out about it, they would get “black balled.” So, what does that tell you? Isn’t that intimidation? Isn’t that threatening? Does that not violate clearly established civil rights and criminal statutes relevant to such conduct?
Make no mistake, SC’s entire legal system is one big snafu.

Ethical fitness? Character? Price fails miserably on both of those.

This Judge nor Mr. Rutherford are friends of justice in SC. Both need to go, as does the states method of selecting Judges. It is jacked up.
