After a years-long court battle with his ex-wife, who claimed James Younger was transgender when he was just a young boy, Juhas ruled in November of 2024 that Jeff Younger could no longer have any custody over his children, and turned over full control of the child to James’ mother, who has been attempting to transition the now 12-year-old James for years.
The elder Younger had previously shared joint custody of the children in Texas, where a judge ruled that his ex-wife could not proceed with gender mutilation procedures without Younger’s consent.
“I lost all parental rights to my sons. Goodbye, boys. Perhaps, we will meet when you are adults. California Judge Juhas gave my ex-wife authority to castrate my son, James. All contact with my boys must be supervised,” Younger announced on X at the time.
“I won’t do that. I send letters and gifts to my sons. My ex is not required to give them to the boys. I cannot post pictures of my sons. Let my story be a cautionary one for young men. Fathers have no rights to their children. Do not enter the family law system.”

In California, recalling a superior court judge requires that the petitioners garner the amount of signatures equal to 20 percent of the number of votes received by the judge in his or her latest election.
If a recall petition is successfully filed and accepted, the state is required to announce a recall election within 14 days of receipt of the document. The state is then required to hold that recall election now more than 125 days later.
Juhas was selected without a primary or general election process to serve as the Los Angeles Superior Court Judge for Office 17 in 2022, according to Ballotpedia,
