It appears some judges are not so non-partisan on the bench. Exhibit A: Mississippi Court of Appeals Judge Latrice Westbrooks.
Yup. The jurist wore a scarf sporting the image of Nancy Pelosi during the oral arguments for ABL Management v. Rowell last week.

And not a damn thing will be said/done about it. Criticizing it would, somehow, be considered racist.
This is infuriating!!
As hard as it is to believe, the scarf makes Pelosi look even worse than she actually does.
9:14 is right, at least as far as nothing being done about it It's (D)ifferent when they do it.
This is why we must redraw district lines. We need to keep people like Latrice and Leslie King on our appellate benches.
She is awful. Awful and the perfect example of how changing the election of Supreme Court justices will water down and dumb down the court itself. Awful.
I see Ruth Bader Ginsburg poking her head out too.
What is the process to impeach Mississippi Court of Appeals judges?
No reason to wear that scarf in court other than to make a noticeable statement.
You should never wear something like that as a judge. I would say the same if someone wore a MAGA scarf, a Mike Pence scarf, an Obama scarf, a Marco Rubio scarf, a Gavin Newsom scarf, a Donald Trump scarf ............
Bar sanctions? Chirp chirp.
I see half of Ruth Bader Ginsburg's face on the scarf as well. Maybe she's just honoring women. Pelosi, love or hate, was the first female Speaker of the House. Why does everything have to be some damn conspiracy? I thought wokeness was dead. Stop crying about every damn thing.
I don’t think it’s political. She’s just a big fan of “Tales from the Crypt.”
Maybe that just means she’s a fan of insider trading.
9:51, because as we are finding out, everything damn thing is a conspiracy. A small portion of the democrats are incredibly stupid and corrupt. Case in point is the continuous Trump bashing is one of the things that got him elected. Anyone over above 12 years old gets tired of it. Stay on that train though, + open borders, + defund the police talk, + not stepping up and defending "females only" in female sports, + corrupt kick backs from overseas. It's incredible to me the dems still don't know why the lost the election.
A judge shall respect and comply with the law and shall act at all times in a manner that promotes public confidence in the integrity and impartiality of the judiciary. Canon 2(a), Miss. Code of Judicial Conduct.
Commentary
Public confidence in the judiciary is eroded by irresponsible or improper conduct by judges. A judge must avoid all impropriety and appearance of impropriety. A judge must expect to be the subject of constant public scrutiny. A judge must therefore accept restrictions on the judge's conduct that might be viewed as burdensome by the ordinary citizen and should do so freely and willingly.
The prohibition against behaving with impropriety or the appearance of impropriety applies to both the professional and personal conduct of a judge. Because it is not practicable to list all prohibited acts, the proscription is necessarily cast in general terms that extend to conduct by judges that is harmful although not specifically mentioned in the Code. Actual improprieties under this standard include violations of law, court rules or other specific provisions of this Code. The test for appearance of impropriety is whether, based on the conduct, the judge’s impartiality might be questioned by a
reasonable person knowing all the circumstances.
What’s not mentioned is the chief judge, Donna Barnes, is sitting right next to her. She allowed her to walk out with that scarf not once but twice.
More proof that Judge Aycock striking down the Mississippi Supreme Court Districts (JJ link below) is Horse S__t. Democrat politicians and Democrat judges are in your face with their biases. But RINO politicians and RINO judges like Judge Aycock keep looking like fools pretending we’re not in a civil cold war with crime and criminal loving Democrats.

Her scarf covers a lot of bases. Ginsberg, George Floyd, Pelosi...several more indistinguishable. She does shit like this to make a statement.
King was a Greenville racist decades before he took a seat on the bench.
File a complaint with the MS Commission on Judicial Performance @
judicialperformance.ms.gov
If you want to read a book that will scare the crap out of you read “Breaking The Law”. Scary as waking up next to Nancy Pelosi
@9:44. The Bar has no jurisdiction over judges. Chirp that.
And the scarf appears to me to be about women, not politics. So I don't want to leave the wrong impression, Westbrooks, J. is unqualified just like her predecessors -- Ceola James and Ermea Russell -- but for being elected
CANON 2
A Judge Shall Avoid Impropriety and the
Appearance of Impropriety in All Activities
A. A judge shall respect and comply with the law and shall act at all times in
a manner that promotes public confidence in the integrity and impartiality of the
judiciary.
Bingo @9:37. It’s not that I disagree with her politically. It’s simply that you absolutely, positively cannot do that on the bench. Should absolutely be sanctioned and receive a public reprimand from the bar and Supreme Court
Every judge should know that a certain percentage of society will be driven bat-sh*t crazy at the sight of 1/2 of Nancy Pelosi's face.
This demonstrates very poor judgment on her part.
Maybe Pelosi shares her "insider trading" tips with the judge.
I would love to walk into her courtroom wearing a MAGA hat and shirt and dare this loser to say something.
So long as you have Clarence Thomas and Sam Alito on the bench, you have zero, and I mean zero, room to talk, Kingfish
Nothing, and I mean NOTHING will be done about this conduct.
Those who should adress this conduct are paralyzed. She is untouchable.
Y’all get a grip! She isn’t celebrating a political party or ideology. She is celebrating WOMEN!
