Two Republican members of Congress from Georgia introduce impeachment resolutions against a federal judge in Atlanta. The resolutions cite allegations that the judge engaged in an improper relationship with a police officer in her chambers, participated in a partisan political event, and lied to investigators during an inquiry into the misconduct. According to reporting, the judge has already faced discipline connected to the investigation, which also included findings related to her interactions and conduct during the period in question.
The proposed impeachment actions come as lawmakers seek to remove the judge from office, framing the allegations as grounds under impeachment rules. The articles describe the case as involving both personal conduct and questions about credibility, centering on claims that the judge provided false information during the investigation. The available summaries do not include details on the judge’s response or any court proceedings related to the impeachment proposals. The resolutions are presented as a congressional step following the prior disciplinary process.
