First, his experience is so limited that it is almost laughable that he refers to it as something that qualifies him to be a judge. Second, at age 30 his life experience just isn't enough to deal with the situations that he will confront in our circuit courts. <br /><br />For instance, last week I was in Judge Lobree's courtroom , standing in the line, and an APD called a case in which the client wanted to fire him for lack of progress on his case. The person, who was in custody, had obvious emotional and pyschological problems. It probably took Judge Lobree 30 minutes just to deal with the situation. The courtesy, empathy and professionalism that she demonstrated when dealing with the matter was, in my estimation very impressive. After she was done and called my case i asked her "Does she still want to do this for another 6 years?" Of course I withdrew the question. The point being that presiding as a judge is more than an accademic excercise, you are dealing with real people and real problems. When I watch good judges work their way through problematic cases I realize I would never make a good judge as I do not have the temperment and disposition of someone like Judge Lobree or many others who serve in our legal system. <br /><br />Being a judge, particularly in circuit court, is far more than an academic excercize or getting a high score on the bar exam. Judges are dealing with peoples lives, deciding where their children live, dividing up their assets, determining whether they go free or spend a bunch a time in prison.<br /><br />6 evidentiary hearings in your entire legal career? ROTFLMAO. Hell I had criminal trial and two family law trials in December. The fact that you list that as a qualification demonstrates your lack of insight into the responsibilities and obligations of a judge. I really hope you get slaughtered in this election cycle and never become a judge. Mr. Perkins your a joke !<br /><br /><br />Ex Blackjack Dealernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19039943.post-88029506221976793532014-01-20T17:13:45.073-05:002014-01-20T17:13:45.073-05:00It's Joseph GLORIOSO Perkins, you foolsIt's Joseph GLORIOSO Perkins, you foolsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19039943.post-7287311668354189132014-01-20T16:31:56.387-05:002014-01-20T16:31:56.387-05:00131 pm--go watch schwartz in court.....see how she...131 pm--go watch schwartz in court.....see how she treats people..."good" huh?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19039943.post-27669868197503931422014-01-20T16:23:19.625-05:002014-01-20T16:23:19.625-05:00Wow, I'm thinking about going to law school an...Wow, I'm thinking about going to law school and right after I pass the bar, I think I'll just apply to be a judge.

I understand that Judge S. has been good in that position, and County Court is often under-considered when we think of justice. Traffic, small claims, and PIP is the Court of the "people." You can spend a week in her shoes and realize it is not as simple as it looks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19039943.post-83610998876626041242014-01-20T13:21:58.258-05:002014-01-20T13:21:58.258-05:00I can understand that you may not have long hair, ...I can understand that you may not have long hair, just a long memory. Thus, I'm going to enlighten you as to how HAIR appointments work. <br /><br />First, hair appointments often take several hours (3 for me at a minimum) to cut, color and style one's hair. This is just to get out the gray and have a decent style (i.e. not looking like a mullet.) Note, my hair is very similar to the Judge ("controlled fuzcurljewish"- medium to long".) <br /><br />Your favorite stylist may not be available on certain days, and salons are closed Mondays and often booked solid on weekends. During the week, the salon closes at 7pm, so going after work is not always a real option. Going before dinner is impossible. [Going anywhere after is bad....You will be late and hair will be sticking to you everywhere, you are lightheaded from all the fumes, etc. Plus, the last thing you want to do is sit for 3 more hours.]<br /><br />Once hair is completed, assuming this is a blow-dry, the style can last about 7 days if you don't swim or go jogging in a rainforest. Hair can be touched up at home and look professionally done up to 10 days after the salon. (Scalp may itch, but can be done.) I've probably made a style last 14 days with the help of perfume which I would never otherwise wear.<br /><br />$150 is cheap for this service. Even the Hair Cuttery charges close to $95 for all of the above (no tax and tip in that). Most stylists earn barely a living wage for this 3 hours of work since the salon is taking most of the money. I've not paid $150 for my hair appointments since 1997. $200 is cheap for me, $250 with tip for stylist and hair washer is a good deal. <br /><br />I only do this about 4 times a year, but I would do it more if I gave more of a crap about how I look or had to speak to the public more. I usually get an appointment within a few days of a public speaking event since I'm told I am supposed to look presentable despite the fact that the reason why I am there is presumably to share my intellect and not my personal aesthetics. [Yeah, I'm bitter. &*^%$ you.] Also, I consider the hair appointment a "work" related event when necessary because of a speaking engagement. <br /><br />I do not have the time ability or inclination to do my own color at home, and such attempts by color amateurs like me end up in horrible hair, defeating the purpose.<br /><br />Accordingly, I do NOT believe Judge S's action warrants the implication that Judge S did something wrong. Getting her hair done by a professional (read $150) a few days before an event is something completely acceptable and probably necessary. Blame the sexist, racist, sex-object-driven society we live in, but not a Judge who needs professional assistance with her locks or the person who has no health care plan who makes her look [what others need to see as] "beautiful."<br /><br />Just sayin.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19039943.post-47171756885633577452014-01-20T11:29:08.373-05:002014-01-20T11:29:08.373-05:00Agree that he should be running for county and not...Agree that he should be running for county and not for circuit. Agree that his statement to Cap, though well-written, comes of as presumptuous. Had he written that statement differently I'd be more inclined to be open minded about him.<br /><br />That being said, look at some of the positives: First, he said that he works long hours and that he will continue to do so as a judge. Hard-working is a serious plus, and there's no reason to name names to know that some of our current judges just aren't that. Second, he says he'll write opinions. How many of our current judges do that, as opposed to simply signing off on whatever "proposed" order is put in front of them? Third, as I interpret his statements, he's done six evidentiary hearings. Honestly, you don't need to do hundreds to learn how to correctly and efficiently make evidentiary (and other) rulings from the bench. You hear moving counsel's argument, rebuttal, you reference a rule, and maybe you even do a quick Westlaw search (as I'm sure you know, many of our federal judges use Westlaw on the bench frequently when making evidentiary rulings). And then you rule.<br /><br />It's legitimate to question the ego, motives, or thinking of a six- or seven-year attorney who is seeking a judgeship. After all, why not wait a few more years and gain a bit more experience and put yourself in a much better position to be a judge? But you are much of what you will be as a lawyer by that time, as well. A few more years of experience helps, to be sure, but I'm not so persuaded that it's the deciding factor.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19039943.post-53217176734062408352014-01-20T11:23:21.982-05:002014-01-20T11:23:21.982-05:00Trial experience?
