How Judge Ervin decides
Patterns drawn from this judge's own signed orders. Every observation links to the order it came from.
What persuades
On a contested defense summary-judgment motion in a prisoner civil-rights suit Ervin recommends denial, letting the claims proceed, and the district judge adopts and denies the motion.
“United States Magistrate Judge Edie R. Ervin's partial recommended disposition [Doc. No. 42] is adopted and defendants' motion for summary judgment [Doc. No. 30] is denied.”
Procedural preferences
On Social Security appeals she recommends a sentence-four remand to let the ALJ develop the record on an under-considered impairment (such as bipolar disorder) rather than an award of benefits.
“the recommended disposition of United States Magistrate Judge Edie R. Ervin [Doc. No. 9] is adopted and this case is remanded to permit the ALJ to consider and develop the record regarding Francis Beard's bipolar disorder.”
Signed rulings

“the recommended disposition of United States Magistrate Judge Edie R. Ervin [Doc. No. 9] is adopted and this case is remanded to permit the ALJ to consider and develop the record regarding Francis Beard's bipolar disorder.”
“Magistrate Judge Edie R. Ervin's recommended disposition [Doc. No. 4] is adopted and petitioner Christopher Bobbitt's section 2241 petition is dismissed without prejudice.”
Pro se detainee civil-rights suit. Ervin recommended dismissal without prejudice for failure to comply with Local Rule 5.5(c)(2), update an address, and prosecute. District Judge Baker adopted the recommendation, dismissed the case, and denied the defendants' motion to dismiss as moot. The dismissal was procedural rather than a merits ruling on the defendants' motion.
