The Appellate Court affirmed the disbarment of Nickola Cunha, who attempted to disqualify a judge she alleged was biased against disabled people, women who bring abuse claims and people who are not Jewish.
In a writ of error, Cunha, self-represented, claimed former Superior Court Judge Thomas G. Moukawsher violated her constitutional rights to due process and her First Amendment right to free speech, incorrectly determined that she violated the Rules of Professional Conduct, and issued an excessive penalty of disbarment, the opinion said.
