Comments:
Hon Weisberg is a great judge. He knows how to handle cases against MAJOR criminally INDICTED slumlords such as the notorious SOLOMON Z FEDER aka 146 Linden Blvd LLC. Unlike Hon Weisberg there are terrible judges such as Sulay K Grant who is in favor of slumlords. She doesn't even come up on the roster in this Robing room.

He is absolutely terrible. Many landlords and tenant cases (90% of all his cases) that goes through him is stuck. No solution. Destroyed many families and lives. Good luck if you have his as a judge for your case.

He does not listen to no one but legal aids. He trys to belittle tenants as if they don't have any knowledge when case is brought to his attention he pretends to know nothing just to waste more time repeating the same thing that happened from last case.

Comments:
When he was the HP judge in Kings he did nothing but create more work for the judges after him. Cases with serious conditions were delayed unendingly and parties in complex cases were expected to reach a resolution without any intervention from him. Decisions took forever to issue and when they did issue he would punt and reach a result that only created more litigation. Gets lost in his own head. Truly confusing judge.
