How Judge Márquez decides

Patterns drawn from this judge's own signed orders. Every observation links to the order it came from.

Procedural preferences

Adjudicates summary judgment claim-by-claim rather than wholesale, granting and denying within a single order and even within a single party's motion (e.g. standing resolved separately on the cross-motion).

“Defendant's Motion for Summary Judgment (Doc. 49) is granted in part and denied in part... granted as to the Rehabilitation Act claim... denied as to the Americans with Disabilities Act claim... Plaintiff's Motion for Summary Judgment (Doc. 51) is granted as to the issue of standing... otherwise denied.”
