The Florida Judicial Qualifications Commission has reached a stipulation with a Broward Circuit Court judge for a public reprimand over two instances in which she acted improperly during her reelection campaign.
The commission wrote that a “public reprimand of Judge Levey Cohen will be sufficient to deter similar misconduct by the respondent in the future and will also serve as a reminder to future candidates for judicial office that they must protect the integrity of judicial elections by refraining from engaging in the dissemination of unverified allegations about campaign opponents.”
