How Judge Navarro decides
Patterns drawn from this judge's own signed orders. Every observation links to the order it came from.
What persuades
In insurance-coverage disputes, grants the insurer's Rule 12(b)(6) dismissal where the policy forecloses coverage, mooting alternative motions.
“Defendant's Motion to Dismiss, (ECF No. 6), is GRANTED .”
On APA review of an agency immigration determination, grants the petitioner summary judgment where the agency decision cannot be sustained.
“Grants Petitioner’s Motion for Summary Judgment (ECF No. 28).”
A trademark-registration cancellation claim survives dismissal when the plaintiff plausibly alleges earlier actual use of the mark, even if the defense characterizes the claim as fraud-based.
“The Court finds that Plaintiff’s claim is sufficiently pled as a prior rights claim, not a fraud claim.”
Procedural preferences
In Nevada HOA-foreclosure quiet-title suits, resolves multiple competing summary-judgment motions count-by-count in a single order.
“Plaintiff's Second Motion for Summary Judgment, (ECF No. 110), is GRANTED”
At the dismissal stage, filters unprotectable logo elements before comparing the remaining arrangement; thin protection requires virtually identical copying.
“Because the Court has determined that Plaintiff’s logo is entitled to thin protection, it now considers whether the protectable elements in Plaintiff’s logo are ‘virtually identical’ to those in Defendant’s logo.”
Cautions
Denies a Rule 12(b)(6) dismissal of consumer-fraud claims where the complaint adequately states its theory.
“For the reasons set forth below, the Court will deny the motion.”
A declaratory claim tied to future performances must allege a concrete and immediate controversy; demands directed only at out-of-state venues did not make Nevada performances ripe for adjudication.
“The Court finds that Plaintiff has failed to allege a ‘substantial controversy’ as to their right of publicity to Nevada shows.”

Caseload & timing
From public federal docket records for this judge.
The sampled recent docket is dominated by 2026 alien-detainee petitions under 28 U.S.C. 2241, alongside Fair Credit Reporting Act, civil-rights, commercial, and personal-injury matters. Because these recent cases were filed in May and June 2026 and remained pending, they do not support case-duration figures. The historical terminated-case analysis is limited to Tarr v. Narconon Fresh Start.
