Perfect temperament. Intelligent. Does not involve himself in settlement in any way, shape or form if a bench trial is in the offing. Respectful of counsel and gets to the point with class and grace.

Excellent judge. Obviously smart and expects lawyers to act professionally in his courtroom. I would take him on my case any day.

Comments:
His approach to ruling on motions seems to be "do nothing, and the matter will go away." Unprepared for oral argument. When arguing before this judge, be prepared to discuss the abc's of your case.

One of the best state court judges. Gives every party a chance and actually reads the briefs. Pays attention to the law.
