One of the most enjoyable and respectable jurists I have ever worked with. Probably disliked by incompetent litigators. Fair and reasonable.

Worst judge imaginable....ignores the law, makes decisions based on emotion, fails to read briefs; a complete embarrassment to the bench. Shame that federal judges are nearly impossible to impeach.
