    This judge likes the sound of her own voice. She doesn’t let immigration attorneys speak and often interrupts with aggressiveness. She is very deferential to the TAs. She also had ex parte communication with Respondent and urged to take PD instead of presenting a DV case with her because they are “not good cases.” Super disappointing to see judges like this on the bench that are not neutral.

    This judge did not have the ability to ascertain the facts, and was only very serious in making a ruling of rejection.
