Four days after the Supreme Court's landmark decision in Loving v. Virginia, Jacqueline St. Joan married across the color line and lost her family as a result.

In this powerful memoir, St. Joan traces a life shaped by social change, personal loss, single motherhood, feminism, and her eventual rise to the Denver County Court bench. As a judge in the 1980s and 1990s, she presided over controversial cases involving race, domestic violence, abortion protests, AIDS, and Indigenous activism cases that challenged both the law and her own convictions.

Blending courtroom drama with deeply personal reflection, Your Verdict explores the intersections of justice, race, gender, sexuality, faith, and family. Moving between public decisions and private struggles, St. Joan reveals the human stories behind the bench and the emotional cost of judgment.

Honest, courageous, and thought-provoking, Your Verdict: A Judge's Reckoning with Law and Loss is a compelling memoir about resilience, conscience, and the enduring tension between the law and the heart.
