January 13, 2014–A Federal District Court Judge in Pennsylvania has
ruled that
“Kids for Cash” Pennsylvania State Juvenile Court Judge Mark
Ciavarella’s actions in using his courtroom to sentence juveniles under a
“zero tolerance” policy to further a civil conspiracy are not protected
by judicial immunity. United States District Judge A. Richard Caputo
on Thursday issued a
decision in
favor of plaintiffs in that case, holding that Judge Mark Ciavarella’s
acts in participating in a conspiracy to deprive children of a right to a
fair trial in order to send the children to juvenile detention
facilities which Ciavarella helped develop are not “judicial acts”
entitled to judicial immunity. ”This decision will profoundly impact
parents’ ability to pursue Family Court judges for civil rights
violations based on judicial conduct occurring outside of the courtroom,
which causes injury inside the courtroom.” says Colbern Stuart,
President of California Coalition for Families and Children.
