29 years a litigator, will be almost 9 as a judge, I’m hanging up my robe at the end of my term in early January 2025. Had to announce now so those seeking my seat can contemplate and file this April. Surreal. Excited. Mixed emotions. But looking forward to my next chapter. 👨🏻‍⚖️

I had an attorney in a litigation case who would title paragraphs as “our motion for summary judgment is a ‘slam dunk’”. And state that “opposing counsel’s argument is ‘lame’”. Dear reader: Don’t do this. (It didn’t affect the rulings, it just made me cringe.)

As a judge may I share this observation: no matter how you think a jury will decide your case, you have no clue what a jury will do with it. You hope, you advocate, but 6 strangers can derail your case. And this is from a man who believes that juries usually get it right.

@OrinKerr As a judge, it’s all noise and will have no impact on how the case is decided. Because judges don’t rule based on feelings, we rule based on the facts and law. But by doing this, Trump makes any verdict against him appear biased, eroding the rule of law. It’s how he operates.
