How Judge Matey decides
Patterns drawn from this judge's own signed orders. Every observation links to the order it came from.
What persuades
Treats constitutional text as central but not exhaustive when interpreting a provision that recognizes a preexisting right.
“Text does not exhaust the law, but it cannot be ignored.”
Signed rulings
A grounded sample of orders signed by this judge, with the verbatim dispositive language.
“Because Appellants' claims belong to the Plan, the Plan's consent to arbitrate controls. So we will affirm the District Court's judgment.”
“For these reasons, we will affirm the District Court's judgment.”
“For these reasons, we will deny the petition for review in part and dismiss the remainder.”
“The Appellants fail to establish their entitlement to judgment as a matter of law. We will affirm the District Court's order denying the motion to dismiss in favor of arbitration.”
“An application for cancellation of removal under NACARA is not an application for adjustment of status under Sec. 212(h) of the INA. So we will deny Lopez's petition for review.”
“Because considering the evidence underlying Doyduk's expunged charges fell within the IJ's broad discretion, we will deny the petition.”
“For these reasons, we will affirm the District Court's order denying Nichino's motion for a preliminary injunction.”
“Because Ellison failed to demonstrate that her attorney's alleged error affected the jury's verdict, we will affirm the District Court's denial of her petition for a writ of habeas corpus.”
“As those conditions do not exist here, we must affirm the District Court's decision to dismiss.”
“As a result, the Fund cannot recover the claimed withdrawal liability, and we will affirm the District Court's order vacating the Arbitrator's Award.”
“So we will affirm the decision of the District Court and grant the Government's motion to the extent the District Court's order is affirmed.”
“We agree and will reverse the District Court's order denying a writ of habeas corpus.”
