RE: Harassment of Prosecutors
And you have been asked to tell me who you are talking about. If you cannot, or will not, then I can do nothing about it.
If you have a complaint about a Judge, submit it to me and file it in the proper manner. If you do not, then I will assume
that this so-called complaint, like the Prosecutor's evaluations of the Judges, is invalid and not worthy of response.

Fred:
I have no knowledge of any prosecutors being harassed by any Judges. If you have a specific Judge or Judges about
whom you have received complaints, please let me know and I will address the matter with that Judge or those Judges.

do not feel it appropriate to just put out a blanket "stop harassing the prosecutors" to all the Judges, when there is no
reason to do so.
Judges will speak with prosecutors, asthey will with Defense counsel, officers, Defendants, Clerks, and anyone else in
the Courthouse. That I cannot and will not attempt to prevent. But if there is harassment going on, I need to know
about it - with specificity.

Judge Lander,
I am receiving complaints from prosecutors that judqes are interrogating them about the evaluations and the prosecutors
are feeling harassed. I would respectfully request that these inquiries stop immediately. If a judge has a question about
evaluations, they may ask me and I will be happy to meet with that judge. I would hope that you will address this matter.
Thank you.
