Caseload & timing

From public federal docket records for this judge.

Median motion-to-ruling time: 9 days (N = 3).

The reviewed caseload is dominated by criminal complaints and initial appearances handled in the magistrate-duty rotation; those matters usually terminate within days and do not produce merits-motion rulings. The civil component consists chiefly of Social Security disability appeals decided with the parties' consent, along with occasional diversity matters such as the Fortes uninsured-motorist case, which settled at mediation. In this sample, the Social Security appeals ran about three and a half to five months from filing to termination, while the settled insurance case ran about eight months.
