Civil Litigation - Private

Comment #: CA39408
Rating:7.0
Comments:
Judge Rosales rulings are fair and well researched. She tends to favor defense attorneys. She drinks their Koolaid.

Civil Litigation - Private

Comment #: CA39405
Rating:2.3
Comments:
Seconding the other reviewer, this judge does not appear to read moving papers very closely, nor does she appear to consider oral argument. She does not ask any questions or respond to counsel in any way. Instead, expect that she will adopt her (sparse, likely not well-reasoned) tentative ruling 100% of the time.

Civil Litigation - Private

Comment #: CA37511
Rating:1.0
Comments:
This judge is incompetent. She does not know the law. She does not review the papers. She does not listen to the arguments. She does not ask questions. She adopts what is in the badly written tentative rulings prepared by her research attorney. She hates personal injury plaintiffs. Avoid this judge like the plague. There is no universe where this person should be a judge. I anticipate that this new judge will be overruled many times by the appellate courts.
