A Miami-Dade County Court judge is in hot water for allegedly denying trial breaks for an attorney and nursing mother to express her breast milk.

Marissa Altman Glatzer, an 11-year assistant public defender, said Judge Fred Seraphin last week refused her request to take short breaks every three to four hours during trial. She has a 5-month-old daughter and said she must pump her breast milk twice during the workday to feed her child and avoid pain.
