This judge takes forever to issue decisions. By way of example, he took almost three years to issue a decision on a summary judgment motion, and in the interim, would not suspend discovery. Each party spent a LOT of money in the discovery process...and then he granted Summary Judgment. Simply incredible.

Even simple procedural motions (e.g., default) take forever.

I have not addressed the quality of his decisions, because it almost doesn't matter in light of the incredible delays. (The other judges in the same district do not demonstrate this time lag.)

If you are a defendant, this is your judge!

can't believe this joke of a judge is given all of the civil rights cases in Western New York. He will always decide in favor of the authorities. Why have these types on the bench??? What a waste of space this character is!

Doesn’t listen to circumstances. Instead of assisting people with addiction to inpatient rehab and probation he tosses them behind bars for the tax payers and family to support! Gives too much weight to the DA office rather than the evidence.
