How Judge Howard decides
Patterns drawn from this judge's own signed orders. Every observation links to the order it came from.
Procedural preferences
In Broderick, her recommendation to deny the motion to quash or dismiss the indictment was adopted when no objections were filed.
“the R&R (Doc. No. [25]) is received with approval and ADOPTED as the Order of this Court. Accordingly, Defendant's Motion To Quash Or Dismiss Indictment (Doc. No. [15]) is DENIED.”
Cautions
In Holloman, her recommendations to deny dismissal, suppression, and return-of-property motions were adopted in full over the defendant's objections.
“the R&R (Doc. No. [59]) is ADOPTED as the Order of the Court as correct in law and fact. Defendant's objections (Doc. No. [62]) are OVERRULED. Defendant's Motion to Dismiss Indictment (Doc. No. [36]) is DENIED”
