I have over 20 years with the CIA, Booz Allen and Co. and vast field experience in investigations and he is a pure criminal who conspires with other judges to violate the Civil Rights of anyone who stands up to him, not to mention he got his job because of wokeness not ability.

We are going to keep investigating him and the others and bring the report to the DOJ

You will not find a more useless and lazy judge. Total political hack with little knowledge of case laws. Just does what he wants.

Never in my over 20 years of practicing law have I seen anyone so lazy and who might as well be be the prosecutor too because there is no way he could make any rulings the way he just did in my case

This is one of the best judges that I have ever come across. He should be in the Appellate Division -- he is that smart.

He is friendly, personable, fair, easy to understand and really makes the process enjoyable for the potential jurors! I had a great experience.
