Top US #bankruptcy #judge in #Texas secret #SexualRelationship scandal with a #BigLaw attorney working cases through his #courtroom has come under scrutiny of #USTrustee dept and put $13 million$ in #legal award$ under a dark skanky cloud that has attracted global scrutiny.

An aggrieved investor litigant who reportedly received an #anonymous tip letter was rebuffed by #court until later on his own, uncovered TX #property records that showed the #judge had real financial ties with his secret legal paramour.

The #whistleblower recently had his claims against the illicit ethically corrupt ties in the court "thrown out" finding he did not have "standing" to challenge the obviously twisted situation.

The judge who reigned over #SouthernDistrictofTexas’ #ComplexChapter11 cases and has since resigned, claims since he was #unmarried, #DirtyDeal recusal rules simply did not apply to him, but others want actual answers and finally, after years of sweeping this brewing kerfuffle under a rug, a #Federal #deposition has been ordered.
