## Caption

The judge in In re James Dondero wrote a novel… and the villain sounds exactly like the man she’s ruling against.

Judge Jernigan says it’s fiction but ethics experts are calling foul. Judges aren’t supposed to write the ending before the case is over.

🧠 What do you think: Should a judge be allowed to preside over a case that reads like the book they just published?
