Judge's attorney wants complaint dismissed
2007
Overview
In a motion filed Friday, [Ann H. Lokuta]'s attorney Samuel Stretton attacks allegations made in November by the Pennsylvania Judicial Conduct Board. If those allegations are substantiated by the Pennsylvania Court of Judicial Discipline, Lokuta's punishment could include her removal from the bench. Several of the allegations exceed a four-year statute of limitations, while others were the product of attorney/client privilege violations or Lokuta's former secretary stealing documents and correspondence from the judge's chambers, according to Stretton's motion. Stretton also questions the conduct board's accusations stemming from Lokuta's demeanor in the courtroom. Most of the allegations fail to identify the specific case where Lokuta committed wrongdoing, Stretton argues. The Court of Judicial Discipline could deny Stretton's motion or hold a hearing on its merit. The eight-member court of judicial discipline also could dismiss the allegations against Lokuta based on Stretton's motion.
