A mistake of point of law, or a violation of a canon?
If you mean "mistake of law" rather than "violation of canon" then the appellate process in which a higher authority quite clearly points out why they were wrong is very much public and utterly accessible, so yeah, that's public
And so is overturning a ruling here. I was overruled not to long ago.
As for the second, that's a nearly impossible question to ask because there's very little ground. If conduct doesn't violate a canon, then no censure is appropriate. If it violates a canon, then almost always public removal or at least public censure is appropriate.
We're not talking a major screw up, we're talking the boss pulling you aside for a small chat.
Because, honestly, excepting in major issues, repreimands are usually not public. IIRC, do not public meeting laws have excemptions about repremands unless it is something that warents full public censure/removal?
I mean, there's rarely such a thing as "minor mistake", but yeah, if you're asking if judges are just publicly censured...how many thousands of examples would you like?
See, the thing is though I am honestly confused as to why you want to see one Mod telling another that perhaps the tone is not right. Or that they got a ruling wrong and need to reverse. These are NOT major issues, they are things that, in the real world, would most likely be addressed by the boss pulling you onto the carpet to chew you out, or sticking a repreimand in your file. When there HAS been a major issue, [violet] did go out in public and made an address about it.
