Caseload & timing
From public federal docket records for this judge.
Median case duration in the sampled dockets: 274 days (N = 1).
Median motion-to-ruling time: 88.5 days (N = 2).
Senior district judge (Salt Lake City) who carried a general civil docket until his death in 2023. The currently-assigned-judge enumeration is dominated by reassignment artifacts (2023-filed cases terminated within days when the docket was reassigned after his death), so it is not a reliable picture of his working caseload; the sampled subject matter below is indicative only and is not a grant rate or a base rate.
