Judicial Election in 1998
According to the Times-Picayune, Judge Chehardy's 1998 campaign for the state 5th Circuit Court of Appeal against Martha Sassone resulted in a run-in with the Judiciary Commission. The matter, which resulted in a reprimand, was never disclosed publicly because of a confidentiality agreement. In the commission's 1999 complaint, Sassone was accused of running an "undignified" race and misrepresenting facts, including alleging a connection between Chehardy and fallen bail bonds mogul Louis Marcotte. The commission charged that Sassone's campaign ads said that Chehardy released more than 400 criminals on bond in two years, many of them multiple offenders and some of them represented by Chehardy's then-husband, defense attorney Bruce Netterville, according to court records.
