The Nevada Commission on Judicial Discipline has ordered suspended Washoe County family court judge, David Humke - to step down from his judgeship and they’ve barred him from serving in any future judicial role.
Humke, who’s been on the bench for three-and-a-half years, has been under fire for mishandling child support and custody cases.
An investigation determined that he lacked the knowledge and ability to perform the duties of a family court judge.
The disciplinary commission also found that his department only processed a tenth of the cases typically processed by other departments. Humke is a former member of the Washoe County Commission.
