    Distortion of Judge Kelly's record at best (none / 0) (#4)
    by Abogada on Tue Aug 24, 2010 at 10:44:29 AM EST
    Convention time is drawing nigh ... and this is evidence that some folks will do anything to smear another's reputation....not with facts, but with innuendo and apples to oranges comparisons.

    Let's look at the facts:

    1.  The case heard by Judge Kelly, In re Clemons, never reached the Michigan Supreme Court.  
    2.  The comments attributed to Justice Corrigan were contained in a difference case and concerned appointment of counsel.  Justice Corrigan never accused Judge Kelly of abuse of power.
    3.  In re Clemons was not a typical termination of parental rights based on neglect, but rather it concerned a guardianship adoption matter.
    4.  In an odd turn of events, the Court of Appeals conducted their review of the case without benefit of briefs from all parties.  Because the State failed to file a brief, the Appellate panel took as gospel the information contained in the brief submitted by the parent whose child was adopted by the guardian.  The brief was replete with inaccuracies.
    5. Judge Kelly asked questions of the respondent because she appeared in court without counsel - this is normal practice.  

    Clearly, someone wishes to confuse the issues here.
