I have seen him in many cases, seems like he doesn't take wasting time very well and likes to run a tight ship, however I have seen him in a case in 2009 and must say he was ragging on one party alot and seemed like the other party could talk out of turn and insult and he wouldn't say anything, gotta say Bob, not very professional and seemed like something was up...hope not.

One of the very best trial judges. Can get annoyed at lawyers wasting time but is still very patient. Overall a very fair and thoughtful judge and a credit to the bench.

A credit to the bench. Smart, fair, hard-working, well-intentioned, creative. Needs a little work in the temperament department, as he can be rough and impatient. But it is well worth tolerating in exchange for the benefit of his good qualities.
