A state district judge faces possible censure by the Louisiana Supreme Court after the state’s Judiciary Commission found she committed judicial misconduct in dismissing a lawsuit without legal grounds or a proper hearing.

The request for censure  marks the commission’s fourth formal charge in 12 years against Judge Janice Clark,  of the 19th Judicial District, but is only the first to be made public, court records show.

Clark’s attorney, Bob Downing, said Thursday that regardless of what the Supreme Court decides, the case has already taken its toll on Clark, who has spent “an enormous amount of money” responding to the allegations.

He said the case, which comes as Clark heads into her next election campaign, might also have cost her an opportunity for a federal appointment.
