Lazy. Injects himself into trial to benefit plaintiff. Watching the clock run to retirement.

Comment #: FL4673
Rating:Not Rated
Comments:
Not sure why there even is an option for an exception to a magistrate's report. Obviously the magistrates are BFF with the judge and the judge will never, EVER go againt what a magistrate wrote, regardless of how correct their verdict may be. Instead of focusing on the law and finding to see if they are correct, this "judge" is obviously sexist and does not care about upholding or interpreting the law.

Quite easily the most arrogant judge in the 15th. Why didn't anyone run against him?
