Manuel
Lawrence Real (U. S.
District Court, Central District of California)
rates way up on my list for a Good Judge award of
not only good judges but great ones. He was the
judge in my cases against the Federal Aviation
Administration that I speak about in Chapter five of
my book
How
to Rebel Against the System Before it Overwhelms You
(First book on this page). Many attorneys do not
like him but that is probably only because they do
not like a judge that rules with an iron fist.
Believe me when I say I saw him dispense justice too
many times to know that is probably the case. But
that's what I liked about him. He was fair and did
not tolerate anyone being late for court. But,
unlike other non-federal cases, all that added up to
keeping cases moving along and keeping the calendar
clear.
Another Good Judge
award goes to Henry W. Shatford
(Formerly, Superior Court, Pasadena, CA). A native
of New Jersey, Judge Shatford earned his BA at UCLA.
He entered law school at the University of Southern
California and was admitted to practice in 1947. In
1948, he was appointed to the Pasadena Municipal
Court by Governor Edmond G. "Pat" Brown and was
elevated in 1966 to the Superior Court. He retired
in 1985, but in 1989 a new law was passed providing
for the assignment of retired Superior Court Judges
to reenter service and since that time he has
effectively worked full-time. Judge Shatford served
in the Infantry in 1941 in the Air force in 1942-43,
was the President of Rotary, the chairman of the Red
Cross and the Chamber of Commerce, and has served a
number of charitable organizations.
Judge Pro Tem,
Alan Freedman, a Santa Monica
attorney, deserves my Good Judge award. He was
ethical enough to find that PayPal's challenge to
venue in my case has no merit and awarded me
judgment against them. He did not allow PayPal to
pull the wool over his eyes
Commissioner Weiser, Fairfield, California,
Solano County, RT: 10, Very Fair and doesn't put up
with citizens high jinks and lame attempts to try to
"Beat the System"

Commissioner Edward Drayer
Bellflower, CA
Commissioner Drayer took the time and effort
required to review all the information presented and
reach a just decision. My case was far more complex
than the average small claims case and Commissioner
Drayer exhibited patience in assuring that both
sides were fairly heard.
