How Judge Majzoub decides
Patterns drawn from this judge's own signed orders. Every observation links to the order it came from.
What persuades
In Social Security appeals, recommends granting the claimant's summary-judgment motion and a sentence-four remand where the ALJ's decision is not supported by the record.
“Magistrate Judge Mona K. Majzoub recommended that this Court grant Plaintiff's Motion for Summary Judgment ... the Plaintiff's motion for summary judgment is GRANTED”
Recommends summary judgment for a municipal defendant where the plaintiff fails to allege a constitutional deprivation caused by a custom or policy.

Cautions
