A federal judge acknowledged an abusive workplace after clerks reported harassment and stress during the pandemic.
A federal judge in the Fourth Circuit acknowledged in a public order that working conditions in their chambers created an "abusive workplace," following a law clerk’s complaint about harassment, verbal abuse, and erratic behavior during the pandemic.
The judge, identified by sources as U.S. District Judge Lydia Kay Griggsby of Maryland, faced allegations of demanding immediate case updates and disruptive conduct, leading to stress-related health issues and early departures by two clerks.
Though the judge cooperated and agreed to mentorship, training, and improved reporting channels, critics highlight systemic issues in the judiciary, including limited accountability and protections for court employees, arguing that corrective steps alone are insufficient without meaningful discipline.
