Censure

The California Commission on Judicial Performance censured Klein and have barred him from holding future judicial office for misconduct in the case Cohen v. Windsor Fashions, Inc.. Klein was found to have "abandoned his role as a neutral arbitrator and gave the appearance of being punitive toward the plaintiffs’ attorney and grandstanding to the press" and "engaged in a pattern of sarcasm and improper remarks toward the attorneys".[2]
