Traylor-Wolff is a senior judge serving in Pulaski and Fulton Counties in
Indiana. In Indiana judges are allowed to represent clients on part time bases.
So Wolff was
appointed to represent a 26-year-old convicted prison inmate serving a 40-year
prison term in Miami Correctional
Facility who had appealled his
sentence.
Scott
Wampler and Traylor-Wolff began an affair and ate the forbidden fruit in a sitting attorney-client visiting room
in prison last summer.
If found
guilty the supreme court she could be reprimanded or banned from holding a
judicial office in Indiana for life.
She is
accused of violating restrictions that prohibits sexual contact between a
lawyer and his client, forbids a lawyer representing a client if there is
reasonable doubt the representation will be materially limited by a personal
interest of the lawyer,and requires a judge to promote confidence in the
integrity of the judiciary and avoid impropriety. She is also accused of
undermining the independence, integrity and impartiality as a judge
