The two year investigation into judicial misconduct by a well-known Atlanta judge may soon come to an end.
Channel 2 Action News Investigative reporter Richard Belcher has been following the slow moving case against Atlanta Municipal Court Judge Terrinee L. Gundy since 2017. Gundy is pictured above with former Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed.
Sources confirmed to Belcher that the state opened the ethics investigation into Judge Gundy in mid-2017 after complaints that she often arrived late for early court sessions.
Belcher’s investigation found that Gundy canceled court sessions or “rushed through” morning court so she could attend events such as a Super Bowl rally for the Atlanta Falcons.
Gundy is one of two judges who hold 8 a.m. sessions for defendants jailed overnight. If the inmates aren’t seen in court they go back to the cage until another court session can be scheduled.
The defendants, most of whom are poor, mentally ill, or homeless, usually end up staying in jail.
Judge Gundy is a well-known Atlanta socialite who is a fixture at music industry parties. She is pictured with Dr. Jackie Walters (Married to Medicine) at the 6th Annual 50 Shades of Pink Gala held at Atlanta City Hall last October.
Gundy, 2nd from left, is pictured with Gizelle Bryant, far left, Erika Liles, 2nd from right, and Iman Ramadan, far right, at Gizelle’s makeup line launch in Atlanta July 2017.
Gundy is the ex-wife of music producer Kevin “She’kspere” Briggs (who co-wrote Destiny’s Child hit “Bills, Bills, Bills”).
Belcher has repeatedly communicated with his sources on the Judicial Qualifications Commission which is investigating Gundy. But there was no action in her case until this week.
Belcher finally got word of movement in Gundy’s case after last Friday’s JQC meeting.
Commission chairman Ed Tolley, who attended the commission meeting, texted Belcher to say Gundy’s case is “still under close consideration. It remains open.”
Channel 2 Action News has also learned that former Fulton County assistant district attorney Fani Willis has been hired to possibly prosecute Gundy if and when charges are filed against her.
Willis was at Friday’s closed door Judicial Qualifications Commission meeting. She was the prosecutor for the Atlanta Public School cheating scandal that made national headlines in 2014.
Judge Gundy’s attorney did not respond to Belcher’s email for comment.

Weren’t she and Jovita Moore involved in a love triangle with Reed before he married? I thought I saw an extra twinkle in Jovita’s eyes when she aired last night lol.
Black people just love to be in the celebrity circle.
They will mess up their lives just to be around actors, athletes and/or rappers/singers. Geesh
This is so unfortunate.
So few black women judges, then for her to abuse her status and face prosecution is sad. For her to use her court to abuse the poor, mentally ill, disenfranchised is tragic.
Love your dress(es) in these (last two) pics, Gundy.
Love you too Dr. Jackie
A mess! You MUST Keep your nose clean and stay humble when you work in the public sector particularly when you are black. Be sure to dot every I, cross every T and perform your duties competently! These idiots never learn…
Yup.
WOW…they are bringing down all the Black figures. Why do we continue to get caught up in caziness instead of doing what we need to do to stay great. She messed over her own people just to be in a certain circle..they will make an example of her.
“They” are bringing themselves down. I live here. I do not condone it. Mayor Bottoms is a Soror, and she is setting herself up also.
So desperate to be noticed, “ look at me I’m a judge, and I hang with famous people” she act as if she is hoping to be on a reality show. A judge is not supposed to have poor judgment.
Why are we held to a higher standard?
Bingo! If I make it to the bench, I don’t give a hoot bout actors, athletes, and rappers. I MADE IT!! See them when they come before my bench!
It’s white folks too.
Do you all watch Potomac Housewives franchise? Who knew Gizelle had a makeup line?.
I am dissapointed with Bottoms also.
I watch!! I think it’s called Hue or something… doesn’t seem to be heavily marketed so I don’t even know if she’s still in business..
I use to….and I vaguely remember. That was about 52645234 seasons ago, wasn’t it? I think she had like some lipsticks or something.
Because of white supremacy.
These folks and these damn eyes https://media0.giphy.com/media/eun4dZ28aHE1lu4MFN/giphy.gif Demons bye!!!!
Right! Damn fool! A judge is my mentor and she doesn’t put herself in situations where her ethics can be questioned.
Gundy’s dress in the last group picture is much more appropriate. She’s a beautifu woman of a certain age; no need to show your nips smh
Feeling that metallic skirt top combo ???
Saw her at Ebenezer when Kamala Harris came to speak. I just rolled my eyes. Harris’ @ss was so unmotivating and boring. Just bigly disappointed!!
Upon closer inspection, isn’t that what they’re posing in front of? LOL
I swear… NUCCAS GET INTO POSITIONS and JUST CAN’T WORK FIRST AND PLAY LATER… DAYUM! always talkn bout what the WHITE FOKS DO!!! The WHITE FOLKS aren’t under scrutiny SO DON’T WORRY ABOUT what they do…. NOW THIS CHILE JUST GOTTA BE ON THE SCENE TO BE SEEN vs on her job providing Justice and DOING HER JOB! next she be dating Future or Meek!
Hmmm. So she *might* get prosecuted… or she might not. I’ll believe it when I see it.
lmao I legit did not see that but yeah yeah EveryHue haha that’s the name
I didn’t either, until…..LOL
I liked the last pic, first. Maybe she didn’t INTENTIONALLY mean to show her nips. It could have been cold in there. Either way, the dress is nice.
I got nothing…
I knew she was working on it didnt know it was released
I started to read the write up but just too tired to continue. Let go of this bitch. So fck the people (who some probably got arrested for b.s anyway) that are in jail while you rush to get where you got to go or show up late from whatever shin-ding she attended the night b4? Watch how you tread in life because one day you be sitting on the opposite side of the bench. Mind yourself fool.
I like it to, but she should have but something over her breast. Where is the modesty?
I’m weak @ future. She finna become baby momma 16
Its at Target.
That’s all I am saying
Cool. I might check it out.
All I know is them grey contacts scream “I’m a complete psycho with a smile.”
Morning Yall!
Tis all I got.. https://media3.giphy.com/media/Kxt11E0MQ7JiloH5rk/giphy.gif
She’s a party judge ?
Legal profession aint what it used to be. I mean Kim K studying to be an attorney and she has a sex tape ?
Chile…forfeiting your license, tens of (if not hundreds of) thousands of dollars towards obtaining a degree, and ruining your professional reputation just to socialize. I swear society is…lost. Well, maybe she can get a spot on a reality show and then she can socialize not stop. Dummy.
What’s the name?
Lol. The way she shakes her head at the end. lol
Nah. I don’t buy that nor do I expect us to be better because of white supremacy.
I think WE SHOULD hold OURSELVES to a higher standard. #bowdownb!tches https://media2.giphy.com/media/cgjBiW2HLGb4s/giphy.gif
when i look at her face, i feel like i’m on a dark, two-lane road approaching a car with high beams on.
Every Hue Beauty
There are so many who have got it made in the shade , and still mess it up for themselves.
I’ve been a few times, it’s not my cup of tea, the traffic is almost bad as LA traffic.
Off Topic…http://tmz.vo.llnwd.net/o28/newsdesk/tmz_documents/0422_russell%20wilson%20letter.pdf
Let me know what you think.
Lol
She is the last one that should have a make up line. In the first few seasons her makeup was atrocious
So judges don’t have PTO? If she knew she wanted to be at an event could she not have scheduled time off? Do they not have judges to cover for her?
I used to play there in the late 90s. Haven’t been since 2006 for a bar convention. I hear the traffic is horrible and some other things…
Will do.
Ok then. I’m speaking from my own personal experiences and studies that have been done on the matter for black folks in my field. We even had a speaker come in which was required for everyone to attend on the subject to discuss the studies about the biases black folks face in my field. But if you know more than what the studies and personal experiences of individuals prove then please enlighten me. ?
Lmao! Yandy’s are definitely real I know that. Who knows, the judges eyes may be real, I’m just on here talking my bullshit. Have a good day sis!
?? Her breasts are completely covered. I feel for my big breasted sisters, it’s like having a big ass. it’s gonna show even when you’re in modest conservative attire. Now try not to show off your nipples or dimples via proper undergarments but let’s stop the unnecessary policing of black women’s bodies.
? you too boo ?
You can see her nipple, and they have products to avoid that.
You ever seen that on Michelle Obama or Corretta Scott King…or for that fact Giselle or Dr. Jackie.
I LOVE HER DRESS. I’m not policing anything, it’s a blog and I said what I said.
Go on I’m listening and siding with you thus far. If you don’t mind what filed are you in?
Play there. Giggles
I literally addressed the nipple and if that’s so wild to you then your reference doesn’t make sense. Michelle came strutting in a thigh high boot and we applauded where many said it was too racy for a fflotus. As flotus her bare arms were deemed unprofessional. Did you include a deceased church lady mother of civil rights as a comparison lol. Bye girl
You came for me, trying to correct me. Take care, please don’t respond.
Girl we are eye to eye on this. I didn’t know nipples which naturally get erect were so triggering…for other women. Smh.
Right. Self- destructive…sabotage their own life. Someone of her status could probably fool someone Bc she is obviously an overachiever as well, but this is some backwards bullshit.
Legal
Are those contacts? I thought those eyez were real.
Yes, and it’s worse for men.
?????
All day! My heart aches for our black men. Having to navigate the office politics and folks’ insecurities. I salute them.
I have nothing for this phuckery
worked your azz off now you want to star in The Real Bustdowns of Atlanta for social status and clout. Chile if you don’t get your azz back on that bench and make shyt happen
Her priorities clearly were not in order and she chose the wrong job for her profession. Should have been an entertainment lawyer instead of a judge. Now she will lose her reputation, $$ and possibly her freedom just because she was driven with the need to rub elbows with celebrities.
Didn’t somebody say Giselle and the pastor were back together?
Look how that turned out for Pheadra Parks. She was a lawyer with her own practice, then a mortician and now just a former reality star. Just sad when all that potential is thrown away chasing that fame monster.

I feel you, but Phaedra still has her law license and is still practicing. This lady up top risked all of that to hang out with people like Phaedra. The irony.
Truth be told that’s why I wouldn’t be able to hold the position of power. I would do some mess like this. In my mind, I would rationalize my awful behavior to the people who got themselves locked up. Side note- I am an awful person with questionable morals
What are you talking about? Phaedra never lost her practice, morals maybe
That judge Looks amazing. Stop hating
What happened w/the pastor & Tweet?
They know their weak. Which is the reason as to why they fight so hard to judge and exclude. Their comfortable with black people performing low level jobs because they don’t have to evaluate themselves. But dare if you have the same level job as them. They will ignore your contributions, pretend as if what you said didn’t matter, but turn around and use your ideas. They perform minimally at jobs we buss our azzes to get, simply because they know someone who will look out for them. I’m with you girl, and don’t care much for many of them. They are very sneaky and passive aggressive.
This is some Atlanta D-list shyt. Who are these people anyway??

They broke up at least a year ago…Google it
Somebody in here saw him and Gizelle at a Hawks game recently

In my Keith Sweat voice…
? ? Nobooody??
I SAID I LIKE IT TOO. blocks another troll
My husband is in the legal field as well, he is also the size of NFL tackle. Which is intimidating. It would be okay is he was more demure and gay. not to offend anyone but it’s true.
Her eyes are beautiful
It’s not ‘triggering’. It’s an observation….usually means your dress is too da$$ tight!
Phaedra husband is a criminal twice he goes to prison. Lawyer and their criminal activities and lovers
All these society people pose & attend events for awareness or whatever platform makes you look like you doing something . A female black judge instead of using her power to really do some positive things. That money, & power will get you every time. And how arrogant to think that your position is some type of armor that makes you untouchable. You hv a “top” position trust they monitor everything you do. Pictures recordings so when the story breaks she won’t hv a leg to stand on. Don’t folks know that when you reach out to your community and really help people. That’s a successful person to me. That is how you make your name powerful.
Is she dating the former mayor who is also under investigation?
I was just thinking that her eyes alone are pretty, but they just don’t fit her face. Maybe it’s their slant on a wide face….
I think Reed is still married.
Loved it and noticed too! That’s what happens when a top (cut like that) is a bit too tight. It smooshes the boobies flat and wide. Especially if you’re a C cup and up! *personal experience* ?
Rumor has it that he was dating her while he was dating his current wife, which is legal under man law.
Really?
That explains a lotta thangs…*voice trails off*
Yes, and I understand, I’m surprised a dress like that does not have a built in cup. That’s all it isn’t that serious. Have it your Honor.
Very true!
Right!
Last I heard he had a baby a couple of years ago with his wife…but what do I know; I didn’t realize Frank Ski was divorced until he announced his engagement to his new wife lol.
The cheating baby daddy?
OKAY
I heard the same, that she got pregnant first and being that the Langford family has strong and influential political ties (Langford Parkway 166) his marriage was a political move. Now that he is no longer the mayor or hold any political office, he can now live his life and go back to his true love- the party judge. I haven’t seen the wife in pics with Kasim without the daughter as a prop.
She has NO recent pics of her husband on Instagram AND she is not carrying his name as her handle. I suspect they secretly divorced.
Ooh….didn’t know the history of Langford.
Yeah, I know what you mean….. Frank Ski and his two sets (generations) of kids…..
The pastor and Gizelle were married…he’s her ex husband idk anything else
I didn’t say that she lost her practice. My point, while not clearly stated, was that PP had a solid career as a lawyer BEFORE the reality tv fame.
Just out of curiosity, what ever happened to her law practice? Since she is out of the spotlight at this point, why hasn’t she hung her shingle out again?
she did get pregnant first but i thought he was le ghey.
She’kspere…he is one of a whole team of writers on that 1 song. Basically, from what I can remember it was like a person each for every damn word of the song.
This Judge…she more into being Judge Beauty than Judge Judy.
You are so right. If your heart ain’t in social justice and for the impoverished people get out of their courtrooms. She would have done herself and everyone else a favor by serving those she is truly focused on.
i checked and ‘pollo got his sentence reduced and is getting out next august. joe guidice was just released from the same prison. sooooo, if real housewives manages to hang on by the skin of its tooth, we might see them back (if joe doesn’t get deported).
Joe definitely getting deported lol
???
You are not awful. We all sin and fall short. Each day is a new day to be a better you. Start today!
Write a juicy book detailing your escapades and let it all out
Lololoololol.
Joe lost his appeal he’s going going…back back…to Italy
* Biggie smalls voice
lol i just read they denied his request. they ain’t even letting my boy walk the streets; he went straight to a detainment facility smh. now if andy wants to be petty and do a real housewives of italy with joe and a new boo (since Teresa says she will leave him)….
Lol…
Teresa look like she will divorce him and take up a young Italian stud. Also i could see Joe find a new young girl lol
You are so right about that.
Wow. He dogged her out when they were married. Times MUST be hard in DC.
Smh
What’s DC?
nothing will come of this
she’s pretty!
District of Colombia
District of Colombia
Poor kid is going to be confused because Daddy looks like Grandpa but?????
Say WHAT? Chile…..
plenty of fish? Plenty of black female judges in Atlanta!
she had the world on a string and just eff it up cause she thought she was untouchable. stupid. she couldve still acted a fool while serving justice. a lot of people lost their jobs because of her.
Potomac = DC? I never watched the show ?
who?
I didn’t “come for “ you but I know social media and blog comments breed a grandiose sense of self importance for many of you. Bam I responded. Now do what you can and block me but Thanks for proving my point. DiD hArRIEtt tubMaN sHoW hEr NiPPles faceass bye girl
Lol form fitting is too tight?! Y’all gotta stop cause That’s not how nipples work but keep nitpicking I mean NIP picking.
