Our OPINION Regarding The "Honorable" Michelle Naberhaus

Brevard County Court Judge Michelle Naberhaus interviewed, and again, made the JNC's "shortlist" for possible gubernatorial appointment.

As per our , this publication is of the OPINION that the "Honorable" Judge Michelle Naberhaus, was less than "honorable" regarding her participation in an August 2018 political rally. (see below picture)

Judge Naberhaus Attending An
August 2018 Political Rally

Naberhaus' Attendance At This Political Rally
Appears To Be In Violation Of Florida Judicial Canons
Naberhaus Meeting Governor, and then U.S. Senate candidate, Rick Scott

We suspect that her participation in this political rally was in violation of Florida Judicial Canons. Feel free to review for the particulars on this subject, and then decide for yourself, whether Judge Naberhaus is "honorable" enough to sit on the bench within the 18th Judical Circuit?

Adding insult to injury to her apparent "political participation" misconduct, appears to be somewhat deceptive regarding circumstances, whereas, Naberhaus has had to recuse herself from certain court cases -->.

As is supported by a , as well as Judge Naberhaus' own , Judge Naberhaus recused herself from the Michaud v. Casey 2004-DR-019706 * custody case.

* The Michaud v. Casey case is / was the catalyst for the criminal prosecution of news reporter, Dana Delaney Loyd. VolusiaExposed.Com has published over forty (40) articles, in which we express our OPINION, that Mrs. Loyd's prosecution was forwarded in order to COVER-UP the Eighteenth Circuit's failures to properly investigate allegations of the sexual abuse of a child. We are currently developing an article, that will explore our additional concerns, that the Eighteenth Circuit continues to harass Mrs. Loyd, AND has now expanded their harassment to include seeking the arrest and extradition of Mrs. Casey (click here to read court order) from her home state of South Carolina. Apparently, the Court wishes to hold Mrs. Casey in contempt of Court for her refusal to stop insisting that local authorities failed to properly investigate her daughter's sexual abuse allegations (click here to review allegations). In our OPINION, local Brevard officials desire to manipulate the criminal justice system in order to silence both Mrs. Loyd and Mrs. Casey, so that no one will continue to question whether local officials properly investigated a child's sexual abuse allegations. VolusiaExposed.Com holds NO OPINION on the veracity of the child's "allegations", however, we do STRONGLY maintain that the allegations (child's, AND the arrest of Loyd) were NOT handled within the confines of the law. We now also question the Court's actions against Mrs. Casey.

There is no indication that Judge Naberhaus "knew" either Mr. Michaud, or Mrs.Casey, as appears to be Naberhaus' documented rationale, for her judicial recusals. Rather, Naberhaus' recusal appears to center around this publication's coverage of Naberhaus, with particular attention to her perceived judicial misconduct, AND Mr. Michaud's insistence that Mrs. Casey has editorial influence with this publication. (see Casey's Motion for Recusal - for particulars --->)

In truth, this publication, along with another local publication, , have publicly questioned whether the entire Eighteenth Judicial Circuit is a "criminal organization" (see page five (5) of any of BBN's recent editions) Mr. Michaud has alleged that Mrs. Casey also has influence with BBN, therefore, given Judge Naberhaus' recusal from the Michaud v. Casey case, this publication is left wondering if not all judges within the Eighteenth Judicial Circuit have a similiar judicial conflict of interest. This particular concern (circuit wide judicial bias) was further highlighted, within in the Loyd prosecution (we anticipate posting more on this particular topic within our pending and developing article).

And "yes", Judge Crawford, our publication does have legitimate media interests within both the Loyd, and now the Casey matters. More on this, within our pending article.

As is indicated in the below Motion for Recusal, and the Order Of Recusal, Judge Naberhaus recused herself from this case - because, in short, our publication (VolusiaExposed.Com) had been critical of Judge Naberhaus' political involvement in U.S. Senator Rick Scott's election campaign. Mrs. Casey former spouse alleges that Casey has "connections" with VolusiaExposed.Com.

Our Viewpoint
The Folly Of Political Patronage Within Judicial Appointments

It is folly to believe that ANY of have the best interests of most Floridians in mind, as they select judicial nominees.

In reality, political patronage appears to be the driving force behind the selection of judicial nominees, and in the end, judicial appointments.

Judge Naberhaus was appointed to the Brevard County bench** in May 2016, by then Governor Rick Scott.

** Currently Judge Naberhaus is seeking an appointment from County Court to Circuit Court

Was she the best qualified for the job? Well, according to her she carried a C+ G.P.A in law school. Was that the best, that the local JNC, and then Governor Rick Scott could provide Brevard County at the time, a C+ judge?

Now, this C+ County Court judge, after engaging in what certainly appears to be violations of Judicial Canons, seeks an appointment up to the Circuit Court bench. Sadly, but with no surprise, the 18th JNC has given their blessing for her appointment.

We (VolusiaExposed.Com) suspect that Judge Naberhaus will gain Governor DeSantis' appointment from County Court to Circuit Court. Why, well because it provides the governor with two opportunities to afford political patronage - one in the appointment of Naberhaus to the circuit bench, and another in appointment of someone to replace her on the county court bench.

Upon her predicted appointment, Judge Naberhaus should blend in well within the 18th Judicial Circuit. The 18th Judicial Circuit is well known for it's allegations of judicial corruption - as was detailed within a .

ORLANDO SENTINEL - 11/22/2014
"The 18th Judicial Circuit is small. It's made up of Seminole and Brevard counties and has just 43 judges, about 4 percent of the state's total, yet there's one area where it leads the state: Judges formally charged with ethics violations".

And now, with just over a year in, as a judge on the 5th District Court Of Appeal, Judge Meredith Sasso is now on the "short list" to fill a vacancy on the Florida Supreme Court (FSC). Sasso never served as a county court judge, or a circuit court judge - she went directly from being former Governor Scott's attorney, to her appointment to the 5th DCA - and now she could soon be appointed to the Florida Supreme Court (FSC) prior to her 35th birthday. We invite you - you will find no wise old men or women among these nominees. And so goes judicial appointments within the State of Florida.

The staff at VolusiaExposed.Com wishes the nominees the best of luck in the "selection process". We will notify our readers of Governor DeSantis' choice, when that information becomes available. If you are so inclined, email the governor's office, and his support staff with your suggestions and input regarding the nominees. Until then, stand by to stand by ..... there is surely more to come of this.....
