The Pants “Judge” is About to Lose his Job

The Washington Post is reporting that everyone’s favorite judge (OK, he’s my favorite judge because the mere mention of his name drives web traffic), Roy Pearson is set to lose his job as an ALJ. Sources tell the Post that

A city commission voted yesterday against reappointing Pearson to the bench of the Office of Administrative Hearings, which hears cases involving various D.C. boards and agencies. Pearson, who was up for a 10-year term, had tried to hold on to the job. The commission’s discussions are not public. Sources familiar with the deliberations said the panel hasn’t drafted a letter formally notifying Pearson of its decision. Until that is done, the sources said, the decision is not final. The letter could be sent early next week, according to the sources, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the case.

Karma can be harsh.
