How Judge Baggio decides

Patterns drawn from this judge's own signed orders. Every observation links to the order it came from.

Procedural preferences

Enforces the demanding preliminary-injunction standard: a PI is an extraordinary remedy and she denies it where the plaintiff seeks to enjoin conduct already in effect (no likely irreparable harm) or raises no serious questions on the merits.

“A preliminary injunction is "an extraordinary remedy that may only be awarded upon a clear showing that the plaintiff is entitled to such relief."”

Cautions

On review of a magistrate judge's F&R she will not re-hear arguments already considered and rejected below; objections that merely relitigate are unpersuasive.

“Objections to a magistrate judge's F&R 'are not a vehicle to relitigate the same arguments carefully considered and rejected by the Magistrate Judge.'”

Caseload & timing

From public federal docket records for this judge.

Baggio's docket caseload under assigned_judge='Amy M. Baggio' (sample of 12, filed 2026). Mix leans toward Fair Credit Reporting Act consumer-credit suits, civil-rights other, property-damage/insurance subrogation, contract, and criminal. Nearly all are 2026 and still PENDING (consistent with a 2024-08-22 commission), so case durations are unavailable. No contested case durations recorded this build.
