1325 Although his acts were found to have been performed in an ostensibly joking manner, with no intent to cause embarrassment, shame, or injury, or to coerce, or vent anger, and not while court was in session or while he was on the bench, a trial judge was publicly censured for making sexually suggestive remarks to female staff members, using crude and demeaning names and an ethnic slur to describe another staff member, referring to a fellow jurist's physical attributes in a demeaning manner, and mailing a sexually suggestive postcard to a staff member addressed to her at the courthouse.CitationIN RE GORDON (Censured Judge) 13 C4 472 [See: CA Const VI,18,(c)(2)]
