How Judge Fox decides
Patterns drawn from this judge's own signed orders. Every observation links to the order it came from.
What persuades
In Rancho Verde, Fox found that the petition adequately pleaded judicial dissolution while disputes over the operating agreement needed a factual record.
“factual record is necessary to be able to resolve this dispute.”
Procedural preferences
In Brandao, Fox explained that challenges to these magistrate reports would be held until the action concluded.
“those reports may only be the subject of exceptions, once this case has concluded.”
Cautions

“make the required showings by clear and convincing evidence that a conflict exists and that it will prejudice the Petitioner’s rights in this litigation.”
