His lawyer daughter's work for him is only temporary. I happen to know that Judge Woodruff's law clerk (non-relative) left him recently to accept a clerk position with a federal judge. Also, Common Pleas Court law clerks are part-time positions and Woodruff's daughter still has her own practice which she will return to full time once he hires a permanent law clerk again.

Ethically problematic and all. Never turned down a donut, though. Never heard that one before. No tipping one staff, no tipping the entire staff. Ethically problematic and all.

Nepotism in government is bad; neportism in the judiciary is several degrees worse. This sounds like an old Dukes of Hazzard episode. I can't believe there haven't been numerous mistrials, sending dozens of miscreants back to the street. Thanks for the list; in case I ever have to appear in Allegheny Common Pleas, I'll have the motion for disqualification in my brief case. I have to assume the entire story is some kind of a gag.

One needs an advanced education to discern future opportunities, after all. Perhaps using the knowledge acquired in college, they will meet and marry someone from the “right” family!
