We are in that in-between time for Judges when their summer vacation has ended and the holiday slow down has not yet begun. So the only thing left to do is try some cases and listen to the prosecution eloquently say “victim wants max.”
Broweird
Anybody see the story of the Broward judge who went to first appearance for a friend, identified himself as a Judge to the ASA and asked for a lower bond and then appeared on the record as counsel for the defendant? It didn’t make a bigger splash because this being Broward, dog bites man just isn’t news. The only redeeming part of the story is he didn’t wear his robe whilst making the appearance.
Clerk’s Office Mystery
Everyone knows we love a good clerk’s office mystery. There have been so many good ones over the years.
Does anybody know what this means?
So is this window just for the Herald ? Does the Herald even have a dedicated courts reporter these days for state court ? Or is it for social media where IG influencers can drop by, shoot a video and post it?
“Hey I’m here at the Miami criminal court house and I just had some yummy Cuban toast and a cafe con leche and now I’m at the Clerks office on 9 and it’s so cool you all should come by and check it out.”
So what’s going on because we don’t get it.

Don’t know but gotta love the homemade sign. Such professionalism. Dade clerks rock.
ROC court tries a case a week. Justice for repeat offenders never rests.
Always felt it should be ARoc as in “ALLEGED “ or “Accused” repeat offender. Or is the presumption of innocence removed when you’re a repeat offender ?
“Win at all cost”
Interesting what you say about Broward, since your own blog thought he’d be a good judge. Broward voters play identity politics. Four judges they’re currently in trouble with the JQC, all ELECTED.

Very happy for former Dade ASA Woody. He will bring some real life experience and fairness to the Bench. Much needed up there.
SAO messed up again.
ROC is repeat offender bc by definition to qualify as ROC and any of the enhancements as HO, HVO etc you need at least two prior felony convictions.
