He can take a 3 day trial and turn it into 30. He has an overinflated view of his abilities which are marginal. One of his tricks is to ask counsel if they mind that he brings sweets to the jury everyday. He appears to do this to...Read More08/13/2016 10:46 AMContact reviewer

Excellent judicial temperament. He tries very hard to be fair to both sides - which can be frustrating at times. He will let you try your case. I'd have no hesitation to try either a plaintiff or defense case before him.02/07/2011 10:00 PMContact reviewer
