A Superior Court judge in state court in Southern California (Pomona) who allegedly denied a woman a restraining order against her abuser because she is an illegal immigrant is the focus of an “internal inquiry” by the court, officials said Wednesday. Los Angeles Superior Court officials said the Pomona Superior Court supervising judge is looking into whether Bruce Fink acted inappropriately when he told a San Gabriel Valley woman Friday to leave the courtroom by the time he counted to 20 before he called immigration on her, according to the transcript from the hearing.
