Violet Warfield is a judge in the Superior Court of Los Angeles County. She is African-American and a former defense attorney. In late 2019 and early 2020, she presided over the trial of Mickey Haller for the murder of Sam Scales. In late February 2020, she began to sense that the prosecution case was seriously flawed. At one point she asked Haller whether he wished to ask for a mistrial due to prosecution errors. On February 27, she was asked to participate in a meeting with all of the involved parties. The end result of that meeting was a decision by the District Attorney to drop all charges against Haller. Immediately after the meeting Judge Warfield went into her courtroom, thanked and released the jury, and announced the settlement of the case. She also stated for the record that a "grave injustice" had been committed against Haller.
