Other facts
Since being elected in 2008, I have presided over thousands of cases, from small claims to serious criminal offenses. I am acutely aware that each case which comes before the court is a matter of great importance to the litigants. Whether it concerns a traffic ticket, an eviction proceeding, a contract dispute or a criminal accusation, I can confidently state that I have approached each and every case with fairness and equity. I pledge to continue to do so if I am re-elected.
