A resolution expressing the sense of the Senate that Eleanor L. Ross, judge of the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia, engaged in conduct that falls beneath the dignity of her office.

This resolution would state the Senate's official opinion about Eleanor L. Ross, a federal district judge in the Northern District of Georgia. It describes findings by a special committee of the Eleventh Circuit that she engaged in a sexual relationship with an Atlanta Police Department official in her judicial chambers during business hours and made false statements to the chief judges investigating the complaint. The resolution would declare that she made materially false and misleading statements to the special committee, that her behavior did not meet the standards expected of federal judges, and that her conduct should be condemned. It does not remove the judge from office or impose any penalty.
