Let us just say a couple of things. 1)It's too bad Bob Scola didn't get tapped. He would have done a great job, although the new pick is a delightful surprise and has earned it. 2) There's another appointment that is going to be needed based on this one. So think outside of the box on that clue.
HOW ARE WE DOING?
Apparently not too good:
Rump,
I know you are camped out in the western frontier. Just saying that the blog has been a little weak. Trust me, if I have some good shit, I will certainly send you an email. By the way, give the government a swift kick in the ass for me
Dearest Rump, as a long time careful reader of the blog, it seems that the higher you go, the funnier you get. Just love your response to 9:41 PM. Whether or not you are really going to trial is not relevant to me, as long as you keep me laughing.
Not a scoop. Bagley and Scola both saying Williams was going to be the nominated. They hadn't gotten official word, but had heard on the street what was occurring.
ReplyDeleteAlso, US Attorney to be Willie (forgot his last name).
My money is on Kathy Williams. Another appt. needed for PD.
ReplyDeleteTHE CAPTAIN REPORTS:
ReplyDeleteRump:
For your readers who have a short memory, here are the finalists for the two BIG jobs:
For the position of U.S. District Judge, the three finalists are Jerald Bagley, Robert N. Scola, Jr. and Kathleen M. Williams.
For the position of United States Attorney, the three finalists are David M.Buckner, Wilfredo Ferrer and Daryl E. Trawick.
CAPTAIN OUT .....
Kathy and Willy.
ReplyDeleteI appeared before kounty kourt judge pooler this week. I would be interested in the opinons of others about her courtroom demeanor and her ability as a judge. thank you.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to Kathleen Williams. Certainly deserving of the selection. All three candidates were exceptional.
ReplyDeleteI would be more afraid of calling out Maribelle than Judge Slom. But for your sake and ours thank goodness we have an anonymous button. Nonetheless, I actually like Maribelle, have you ever had a chance to chat with her (of course while the judge is off the bench)? I have and she is a really nice lady. But I agree, once the judge is on the bench she goes way, way (did I mention way) overboard. But is that her mishagosh or his?
ReplyDeleteMaybe Happy Jack is on to something after all. It seems that Tew Cardenas does in fact represent pornographers. Follow me here:
ReplyDeleteReed this week's story in the New Times about the Porn King of Fisher Island here. On page 2 we learn that Bangbros is represented by one Amanda Frazer. Who does Ms. Frazer work for? Tew Cardenas (see here).
You FINALLY got something right, Jackie. Mazel tov.
Pooler is awesome. She'll do the right thing. Just don't try to BS her.
ReplyDeleteOh, and have some lemon drops!
BTDT
Don't nobody talk bad about Judge Pooler. Don't nobody.
ReplyDeleteShe is actually one of my Gerstein building favorites. I find her both charming and fair.
Is it true that Rumpole lives in the Bangbus creator's former home?
ReplyDeleteIt's Mabel, not Maribelle.
ReplyDeleteMabel is the worse ever. She should be playing bridge at some seniors center instead of keeping order in a court room. Fire her Slom. As for Pooler, my first time in front of her, I felt like she didn't give me the chance to make my argument. But after having her cover more than once, I have grown to like her and respect her. She is fair.
ReplyDeleteRE: Judge Slom
ReplyDeleteBulls-eye! Never have truer words been spoken. The Baliff for Slom must have previously been a Stormtrooper. She is incredibly rude. But in the end, she works for the judge. He cannot be so blind/deaf as to not see/hear what she does.
One can only conclude she does it at his direction with his blessing.
No doubt, walking into their courtroom in the morning is disheartening. There is no need for it. Judge Bloom runs a courtroom with Henry Ford like efficiency, with a nearly invisible bailiff.
A similar rumor of Williams and Ferrer being vetted has been floating at the USAO along with Nieland for Marshal. Rumoredly, announcements are stalled due to a holdup involving the middle district and a battle of words with Shorstein and a former colleague. Probably after the New Year.
ReplyDeletethe kounty kourt defnse bar? botton feeders who have no one wainting at their offices, probably bus stops near sys old office.
