Just read one of her opinions; wow what a piece of work! Not only was she completely wrong in her legal ruling she was condescending and rude. So much for not having a judicial bias.

An arrogant rule fetishist who could no make it in the law firm world and who now warms a bench at taxpayers' expense. Form over substance is her method.

It is clear, from the jailing of Nakoula Basseley Nakoula {The Innocence of Muslims} without bail, that Federal Judge Suzanne Segal walks the party line (i.e. that of U.S. President Barack Hussein Obama and U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton) with regard to the Socialist/Islamic Coalition that is entrenched at the highest levels of the federal government in the United States of America. Nakoula Basseley Nakoula's incarceration is just one step toward Totalitarianism.

Pleasant to deal with. Settled our complex, seven year old 42 USC 1983 action at MSC. Both sides left grumbling -- a good indicator of a fair settlement.
