24 years as a prosecutor in four federal districts and this is the worst judge I have ever encountered. Arrogant and not very smart.

Rating:1.0
Comments:
Clearly does not read the briefs; surprising he even went to law school - does not understand elementary legal concepts, even when they are explained to him. Clearly does not listen during trial, though do not try to correct him - incredibly arrogant.
