Honorable Steven L. Seider,
The State Commission on Judicial Conduct issued a public admonition 17 based on the facts and evidence before it that Justice Longoria repeatedly identified herself to police officers as being a judge, offered to show the officers her judicial badge, and attempted to use her position as a judge to obtain favorable treatment and escape the consequences of her conduct, in willful and persistent violation of Canon 2B of the Texas Code of Judicial Conduct
