Judge John A. Mendez Controversy US District Court Eastern District of California
Unethical conduct, pro-government bias and other misconduct allegations regarding US District Judge John Mendez, United States District Court for the Eastern District of California. Judge Mendez is a former federal prosecutor and Sacramento County state court judge who allegedly conveys a pro-government, pro-law enforcement bias in the adjudication of federal civil rights cases against law enforcement officers, government employees, prison officials, state court judges, and government officials. Judge Mendez reportedly does not disclose conflicts of interest as required by law. Sacramento County Superior Court whistleblowers and court reform advocates assert that Judge Mendez is partly responsible for the cover-up of systemic civil rights violations, honest services fraud, and RICO racketeering by Sacramento Family Law Court judges, judge pro tem attorneys, and court employees against indigent, financially disadvantaged and disabled pro per litigants.
