In the criminal realm, this judge is a second prosecutor. Ive practiced 20 years in Sacramento and this is one of two very bad judges, worth the 170.6 challenge if you have to rely on court discretion. Probably better for misdemeanor cases that serious felonies. He will fine counsel for trivial matters; example he ordered the attorney to not object on behalf of his client and for asking for a continuance on the day of J&S.

The honorable Judge has a very impressive military history that should demand respect from anyone that does t know what they are talking about Jesus, the Christ peace .

Comments:
Biased, prejudiced and possibly racist. He ignores documents amd prima facie facts of cases for people he doesnt like and will screw up everything and present a misrepresentation of the actual events of a trial in his ruling to protrct his incompetence and his bias. Either his memory is failing or he misrepresents facts on purpose. His statements in hos decisions are on its face biased and discriminatory

Openly biased against pro se parties. Rubber stamps FCS mediator recommendations. Makes findings in contradiction to documented facts in order to rule in favor of parties represented by temporary judges.
