Sovereign citizen jailed for disruptive behaviour in court
Quote:
A Nelson woman has been sentenced to 21 days in jail after treating a judge with “disdain and disrespect”, causing the judge to fear losing control over her courtroom.
Judge Jo Rielly told Megan Gordon that she had been repeatedly asked to stop interrupting at the Nelson District Court on Thursday.
Gordon was directed to leave the court, and to speak to a lawyer.
After returning to court, she went on to accuse Judge Rielly of “lying and embellishment”.
Gordon spoke over the judge, addressed her by her first name, was “disrespectful and rude” to Rielly, and was taken into custody because of her disruptive behaviour.
