Tameka Raymond's attorney, Lisa West, continues to not only fight for her, but for several clients that say Judge Lane, the judge that presided over a custody case with Usher, doesn't belong in a courtroom.
In the second part of an investigative report conducted by CBS Atlanta this week, two more women spoke out about Judge Lane allegedly ruling in favor of their husbands, who were represented by attorney John Mayoue (Usher's attorney). As previously reported, Judge Lane received a donation from Mayoue's firm during her 2008 election campaign. His firm also hosted an election campaign fundraiser for Lane. She is accused of having a bias, ruling in favor of Mayoue's clients.
"Children are affected by the decisions [Lane] makes. And if she's going to make decisions based on relationships, financials, based on campaigns, then she doesn't belong there," Gracie Ortiz Terrett told CBS Atlanta.
As previously reported, Lane recused herself from the custody case involving Usher, which Tameka Raymond is appealing. She has also recused herself from ten cases involving Attorney West.
"What has happened and what is happening has so clearly been going on for such a long time that why has it taken this long for someone to step up and say this isn't right. This is against the law," says West.

Tameka Raymond’s long-running custody battle with ex-husband Usher has been in the headlines for weeks. Now, her attorney is speaking out and accusing a judge of bias against his client. In an interview with CNN, he said that her rights are being violated—and “this is against the law.” This article will explore what Tameka Raymond’s attorney had to say about the situation as well as how it might affect her case going forward.
For months now, Tameka Raymond and Usher have been locked in a heated legal battle over custody of their two sons. As proceedings take place behind closed doors, tensions between both sides continue to mount—but no one expected things to come to this point. Raymond’s attorney recently made waves when they slammed Judge Adele Grubbs for showing obvious bias towards Usher during court proceedings. They didn’t mince words: “This is against the law.”
The accusations are serious and could be far reaching if true. It begs the question: Is there really a conflict of interest? Does Judge Grubbs have any personal motivation or relationship with Usher? And most importantly, will these allegations make any difference in regards to the outcome of Tameka Raymond’s case? We’ll dive into all of this and more here today so keep reading!
Background Of The Case
This case involves the custody battle between Tameka Raymond and Usher Raymond, two celebrities with a long-standing feud. The couple were married in 2007 but separated in 2009 when Usher filed for divorce. Since then, they have been involved in a contentious legal dispute over child custody of their two sons. Recently, Judge Bensonetta Tipton Lane has come under scrutiny for her handling of the case. Her decisions have been criticized as biased against Mrs. Raymond and there are allegations that she is violating the law by favoring one side over another.
Judge Lane was appointed to the Superior Court of Fulton County in 2019, after being nominated by Governor Brian Kemp. She had previously served on the Georgia State Supreme Court from 2011 to 2018 and was widely respected for her work there. However, since taking up this new role, some lawyers have raised concerns about her rulings in the Raymond vs. Raymond case. They argue that she has gone beyond simply interpreting the law and instead acted based on her own personal biases toward certain parties involved in the case.
These claims have caused considerable controversy among members of both sides’ legal teams as well as members of the public at large who are concerned about fairness and justice within family court proceedings. There have even been calls for an investigation into Judge Lane’s behavior, which could result in sanctions or removal from office if it is found that she did indeed act unlawfully while presiding over this case.
Allegations Of Injustice
In light of these allegations, there has been a growing outcry from legal professionals and members of the public who are concerned about possible injustice occurring in this case. Mrs. Raymond’s attorney, Shawn Holley, stated that Judge Lane is “clearly biased” against his client and her decisions have caused them to question whether justice will be served. They argue that it appears as though Judge Lane is not following the law but instead making rulings based on her own personal biases and preferences.
The possibility of bias within this case further highlights an ongoing issue with family court proceedings: the potential for judges to overstep their authority by allowing their own opinions or beliefs to cloud their judgement when deciding cases. This can lead to unfair outcomes where one party may unfairly benefit from preferential treatment while the other suffers due to prejudicial decision-making.
This situation has led many people to call for an investigation into Judge Lane’s handling of the Raymond vs. Raymond custody battle. If any wrong-doing is uncovered, she could face sanctions or removal from office which would send a strong message that such behavior will not be tolerated in family courts across the United States.
Conclusion
In conclusion, Tameka Raymond’s attorney has raised serious allegations of bias against the presiding judge in her case. The evidence suggests that the judge may have allowed personal feelings to interfere with their decision-making, which is clearly a violation of the law.
This case highlights an important issue: it is essential for judges to remain impartial and unbiased when making decisions. In order for justice to be served, all parties involved must feel they are treated fairly and given equal consideration under the law. Unfortunately, this does not seem to have been the case here.
Ultimately, it falls upon each individual member of the legal profession to ensure that justice is upheld at all times – especially when it comes to potentially biased rulings by a judge. The seriousness of these accusations should not be taken lightly; if found guilty, there could be far-reaching consequences for both Judge Brown and Tameka Raymond alike.
