"These problems are getting worse, not better, and it's because the judiciary hasn't taken some simple steps to make them go away." A Post report finds ethical violations are rampant among several federal judges, usually of the conflict-of-interest or boondoggle variety. "A second set of ethical lapses involves seminars held at resorts by a Montana-based group, the Foundation for Research on Economics and the Environment (FREE). On at least six occasions from 2002 to 2004, federal judges accepted air travel, food and lodging from the libertarian foundation but did not list the gifts on their annual disclosure reports, as required by law, documents and interviews show."
