Christy Peterson is a candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives in Colorado's 1st Congressional District. The candidate is former Georgia probate judge Christina Peterson, who was removed from the bench by the Georgia Supreme Court on June 25, 2024, following multiple ethics violations.
The court found Peterson committed willful misconduct and conduct prejudicial to the administration of justice. Findings included jailing a litigant without due process for a marriage license application error, misusing courthouse security systems, and attempting to influence a lawsuit against her neighborhood homeowners association. She is barred from judicial office for seven years. Additionally, she faces ongoing litigation regarding a 2024 arrest at an Atlanta nightclub on charges of battery against a police officer and obstruction.
