A pleasure to appear before. He enjoys trying cases and the attorneys who try them. Judge Whipple will let you try your case. However, don't try to pull a fast one on him. He has seen it all over the years and it will come back to bite you if you try to pull something over on the Court. Last, but certainly not least, be prepared.

A gentleman on and off the bench, but does not 'suffer fools gladly'.

Judge Whipple will let you try your case, but if you're found guilty he will hand out boatloads of time.
