Petition is addressed to: California Commission on Judicial Performance
We, the undersigned, respectfully request a formal investigation into the judicial conduct of Judge Chinhayi Cadet of the San Mateo County Superior Court. This petition reflects personal opinions based on observed patterns in court proceedings and publicly available documentation.
Our concerns include:
- Potential Bias in Decision-Making: Patterns in rulings that suggest a lack of impartiality, based on observations and court transcripts.
- Possible Procedural Irregularities: Situations where adherence to due process may have been compromised, impacting the fairness of proceedings.
- Concerns About Judicial Conduct: Behaviors observed during court hearings that, in our opinion, could undermine public confidence in the judiciary's impartiality and professionalism.
The judiciary plays a critical role in upholding justice, and public trust in this institution depends on the fair and ethical conduct of its members. When concerns about judicial behavior arise, it is vital for oversight bodies to examine the issues thoroughly to ensure the integrity of our legal system.
To substantiate these concerns, we are providing supporting documentation, including excerpts from court transcripts and a formal complaint submitted to the California Commission on Judicial Performance (CJP). These materials are available for review at the following link to attorney Andrew Watters' article https://www.andrewwatters.com/hall-of-shame/chinhayi-cadet/ and my own complaint filed with the Presiding Judge Elizabeth Lee https://drive.google.com/file/d/1iAzYtJE0a5nSBh8TJ_7NrHIXM9XwTkIk/view?usp=sharing.
This petition reflects personal opinions and it is submitted in good faith. Our goal is not to disparage but to advocate for transparency and accountability in our judiciary. We believe an investigation into these matters will help restore faith in the legal process and ensure that justice is served impartially.
We urge the California Commission on Judicial Performance to:
- Review the provided evidence thoroughly.
- Investigate the allegations of bias and procedural irregularities.
- Take any necessary corrective action to uphold the principles of fairness and integrity in the judiciary.
By signing this petition, you support the call for judicial accountability and the preservation of trust in our legal system.
Reason
The integrity of our legal system relies on the impartiality and professionalism of its judges. Allegations against Judge Cadet suggest a deviation from these standards, warranting a formal review to ensure justice is served and public trust is maintained.

Why people sign
I am a part of a family law case that HONORABLE CHINHAYI CADET presides over. Firstly, this judge has no regard for the law. She makes rulings that do not comply with the law and then changes them the next moment again to favor the side she likes. She has no respect for the law or the right of the court to protect an individual. Over the past hearings, she did not listen to me or care about my arguments, even going as far as to tell me that this case can be decided upon without my presence when I said that I was not available on one of the dates of a trial that she was setting. During all of the hearings she has presided over so far, she took the side of the affluent WASP male who did not present any evidence. Instead, she listened to his verbal statements (which were completely false), claiming that he had more sincerity. I fear for her next unlawful rulings as she controls my future and the futures of other people in Silicon Valley.
