Former Superior Court Judge Kevin A. Ross lost his seat on the bench today for ethical violations and lying to the state panel that investigates judges. Seems the legal establishment looks askance at using your position to try out for a reality TV show by hearing cases in a strip club and asking for details about the wet t-shirt contest. Ross gets his $149,160 yearly salary while he appeals.
No need to call him Judge Ross anymore
