Sample Lawyer comments:
  • "Terrible judge. He is lazy. He comes to work late. He takes long breaks. He is inefficient and does not apply the law correctly."
  • "Sometimes he gets the right result, and sometimes he's flat out wrong. Hard to know from one day to the next which experience you will have."
  • "While Judge Fleming is a nice guy, his own issues are impacting his job performance and have been for the last 5 years. Late starts, too many breaks, unprepared."
  • "He may be impartial, but you don't get a fair hearing because he is not prepared."
  • "I think it's the right time for Judge Fleming to retire. His years of service deserve respect."
