Federal Judge Ordered Into Psychiatric Testing After Claiming Latino Lawyer Had ‘White Privilege’
A judicial committee ordered psychiatric testing and stripped Brown of new cases after complaints over her courtroom conduct.
- On Friday, U.S. District Judge Ada Brown failed to appear for a mandatory hearing before a special three-judge committee investigating allegations she abandoned her office and may have a mental condition affecting her judicial duties.
- The misconduct complaint against Brown stemmed from an April 24, 2026, hearing where she repeatedly directed racial insults at attorney Ezra Young, accusing him of "racial bullying" and having "White mediocrity."
- During the hearing, Brown called Young a "Chad"—the male version of a "Karen"—and a "White savior," while telling him he was "intimidated by Black excellence" and allegedly providing a 1920 article describing a lynching.
- The Fifth Circuit Judicial Council removed Brown from her docket last month and ordered a psychiatric exam within 30 days, after finding she had left 78 motions undecided since August 10 in protest of a recusal letter.
- Citing interference with a parallel investigation, Brown previously refused to participate. Committee members, including Chief U.S. District Judge Alia Moses, warned that skipping Friday's hearing could expand the investigation and produce a final report without her input.
