I just learned that Judge William Hatten passed away this morning.
He lived a long, happy, and distinguished life.
He was retired from the bench and doing only his visiting judge job when I first met him.
I extend my sympathy on his passing and my congratulations on a life well lived.

The article on the new jury assembly mention some quotes from Judge Mark Ellis. Ellis speaks about efficiency and not making jurors feel closterphobic. Is that not abbot ironic? Ellis has the longest voir dire in the courthouse. It is pure torture.
