The Texas attorney who called out the viral judge caught on tape tearing into an IT worker and demanding he apologize for his behavior, was a no-show in court after being ordered to appear before the magistrate. Attorney James Stafford did not appear before Harris County Judge Nathan Milliron on Thursday, but instead about a dozen lawyers from the Harris County Criminal Lawyers Association packed the courtroom in a show of solidarity for their colleague, the Houston Chronicle reported. Milliron accused Stafford of “ex parte” communication — contacting a judge in a legal proceeding without the other parties’ knowledge — after the longtime attorney demanded he apologize for berating an IT worker who came to help him with a computer issue.
