Answer & Explanation:

1.) Nine of every 10 judges were allowed to return to the bench after they were sanctioned for misconduct.

2.) At least 5,206 people were directly affected by a judge’s misconduct. The victims cited in disciplinary documents ranged from people who were illegally jailed to those subjected to racist, sexist and other abusive comments from judges in ways that tainted the cases.

3.) Each state has an oversight agency to investigate charges of judicial misconduct. But the clout of these commissions is limited, and their authority differs from state to state. To remove a judge, all but a handful of states require approval of a panel that includes other judges. And most states seldom exercise the full extent of those disciplinary powers.

4.) In many states, the system of handling judicial misconduct allegations errs on the side of protecting the rights and reputations of judges, not on the concerns of the complainant.

5.) One longtime Alabama judge who concurrently served on the state’s judicial oversight commission remained on the bench for three years after being accused of violating the same nepotism rules he was tasked with enforcing. After Reuters repeatedly pressed the judge and the state judicial commission about the matter, the judge retired from the bench as part of a deal with Alabama authorities to end the investigation.

By making Native Americans "assume a capitalist and proprietary connection with property" that did not previously exist in their cultures, this would change the traditional systems of land tenure into a system of private property that is imposed by the government. The law gave tribes the choice to sell the federal government any unclaimed lands. Before allotments of private property could be made, the government had to determine "which Indians were eligible," which prompted a "official hunt.
