text: Barb Johnson, a litigator and member of the fathers' right movement, who unsuccessfully ran for governor of Massachusetts in 2002 on a platform of court reform, the need for judicial accountability, particularly in the family-law courts, and the abolishment of judicial and quasi-judicial immunity and who was later disbarred for what she describes as political reasons and for educating fathers about the improper assessment of guardian ad litem fees by Massachusetts family court judges, is currently attempting to create judicial accountability and abolish judicial immunity through her lawsuit against the Massachusetts Board of Bar Overseers et al. for acts of defamation and intentional interference with prospective advantageous business relationships associated with her disbarment.
