non-compete case, he worked to find any and all angles to dismiss it, ignoring obvious fact questions, failing to address issues raised in the briefs, etc. Striking bias against the company plaintiff.

Very measured consideration of both details and law process and facts/underlying spirit of the situation before him. Willing to stand up to government wrongdoers with well reasoned justice. What a good judge should be
