Stanley R. Palowsky, III v. Allyson Campbell

Summary

The court held that, accepting the petition's well-pleaded allegations as true, the judges were not entitled to absolute judicial immunity at the exception-of-no-cause-of-action stage. The alleged supervision and investigation of the law clerk's handling of court documents arose from administrative rather than judicial functions, allowing the plaintiff to state a cause of action. The judgment was reversed in part and remanded for further proceedings.
