BANGOR, Maine (AP) — A Washington County probate judge has been sanctioned by the Maine Supreme Judicial Court for not dealing with cases fast enough.
Judge Lyman L. Holmes was ordered by justices on Thursday to provide a list of cases taken under advisement for more than 30 days to the executive director of the Committee on Judicial Responsibility and Disability for every month until next August.
Probate judges are elected. They handle adoptions, wills, guardianships, estates and name changes.
Holmes has been the probate judge in Washington County for 22 years.
The Bangor Daily News (http://bit.ly/udG3RE) reports that the sanction order says some people had to wait years for Holmes to make a decision in cases that should have taken months.
Holmes could not be reached for comment

Editor's note: This is a tactic used in the Probate Court of Cook County to unneccesarily tap the assets of estates in order to line the pockets of the court parasites. Lucius Verenus, Schoolmaster, ProbateSharks.com
