Civil Litigation - Private

Comment #: 24518
Rating:2.6
Comments:
Inexplicably unpleasant and impatient. Apparently takes pleasure in denying agreed motions for extension. Also likes to threaten dismissal with prejudice when no basis exists. Not nearly the intellect she thinks that she is.

Judge Ungaro is industrious, intelligent, and does not tolerate shenanigans. She commands a deep understanding of the law. I have never had reason to doubt her fairness.

Prosecutor

Comment #: 22089
Rating:Not Rated
Comments:
Prickly at times. Understands issues, open to listening to arguments, comes prepared, very intelligent though short on patience. Not a bad draw for prosecutors or defense attorneys, depending on the case.

The one that controls the schedule is the judges deputy clerk Kathy, has a nasty temper, short fuse, very hyper, uses cuss words when things dont go her way.
The judge allows it to happen because Kathy is very good at her work but lacks people skills and at times her temper gets out of hand.
