Recent judicial activity

Opinions authored and panels sat on, most recent first.

Cases

Appellate cases on which this judge sat, drawn from panel information published with each decision.

Judicial writings

No writings are attributed to this judge in the ingested records.

Source Authorship is recorded only where the source data carries it. For recent Courts of Appeals opinions CourtListener frequently publishes the decision as a single document without naming the authoring judge, so an absence here means the attribution is unavailable upstream — not that the judge has written nothing.
