Civil Litigation - Private

Comment #: DC126
Rating:8.4
Comments:
Probably a slight defense bias. Overall a good judge. I like another poster am surprised by negative comments though I could see how the judge's confidence could come accross wrong in the right situation.

Anyone that would rate this judge as anything but very good hasn't had the experience of trying a case before a bad judge.

Surprised at other comments. Thought he was a good, serious judge. Did his homework even during the trial.

Civil Litigation - Private

Comment #: DC70
Rating:5.5
Comments:
Sarcastic from the bench. After ruling against me on a legal point, I leaned over to speak with my client and he asked me what I said. I had to remind him that my comment was to my client and none of his business. It would be a sad comment for DC if he gets the seat on the DC Court of Appeals.

Very biased towards defense.
