This resolution seeks to impeach Eleanor L. Ross, a federal judge in Georgia's Northern District, for high crimes and misdemeanors. According to the article of impeachment, Judge Ross engaged in sexual activity with an Atlanta Police Department official in her courthouse chambers during business hours between October 2023 and October 2025, conduct that allegedly occurred within earshot of her staff. When questioned about this behavior by court leadership in September 2025, Judge Ross made false statements denying the sexual activity had occurred in her office before later admitting the truth to an investigating committee. The Special Committee's investigation included review of security footage, sign-in logs, interviews with former clerks, and physical inspections of her chambers. The resolution argues that Judge Ross's misconduct and deliberate false statements to senior judges demonstrate she is unfit to serve and warrants her removal from office.
