"publicly admonished for engaging in willful conduct that cast public discredit upon the judiciary in violation of Article V, Section 1-a(6) of the Texas Constitution when she; (i) wore a pink knitted beanie with cat ears referred to as a “pussy hat” during a public meeting of the Travis County Commissioners Court, an action that could be perceived as undignified, offensive and inappropriate; and, (ii) made the public remark that Governor Abbott “hates trees because one fell on him,” a comment which could be perceived as offensive, demeaning, and derogatory towards the governor and others with physical disabilities."
Eckhardt apologized for the joke the following day
and was later cleared by a special court of review, which noted that the CJC "overreached in rebuking her."
