All I've seen on TV and read here is that Weill is a horridly incompetent, unprepared, overpaid, innefectual white boob of a racist jerdge. <br /><br />How about laying off all that canned crap (public defender talking points) and providing some concrete examples of what you accuse him of. I'm laying odds you either CAN'T or WON'T do that.

Judge Weill makes life altering decisions everyday, which affect many in the metro area, and he takes that very seriously. No matter what you may think of him, he always tries to follow the law and do what is right. You may disagree with his legal conclusion as I have before, but that's no reason to attack him personally. Most of the negative commentors clearly don't know him personally. I do. I know Judge Weill both professionally and personally, and he is the best judge I have ever had the pleasure of appearing before. Even when I lose my argument (and he has ruled against me multiple times), I leave feeling like he is doing his best, and that is all that we can ask. He requires all attorneys to follow the rules. In no other Hinds County courtroom can you count on an equal playing field for both sides. This situation was created by an attorney who refuses to follow any rules. Get some facts before you hide behind a screen and spew misinformed hatred based mostly on hearsay and untruths.

If you have something concrete would one of you please enlighten those of us that don't practice law in front of Weill with something concrete? I know I would appreciate it and I assume others would. Otherwise I'll just assume you have some axe to grind with Weill.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-62533303866380203302015-04-03T16:44:19.253-05:002015-04-03T16:44:19.253-05:00Another question if Weill is appointing private co...Another question if Weill is appointing private counsel for these matters, who is getting these appointments?

If your only interest is seeing black criminals locked up for the max sentence, he's your man. If you want a truly impartial magistrate on the bench, as the constitution requires, he need to be back on the city council or mediating divorces. I'm not a public defender, but an attorney who is in position to know what Weill does. I realize most of the white public likes his antics and he will remain as judge as long as his district is northeast Jackson, but that doesn't make him an esteemed jurist.<br /><br />With all that said, the antics of the public defenders are even more sad and pathetic. Weill was 100% correct in finding them in contempt. In fact, he should have put their sorry behinds in jail for a day or two.<br /><br />Very sad and pathetic overall situation.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2447438783001404385.post-42980801484454962592015-04-03T09:06:11.948-05:002015-04-03T09:06:11.948-05:00I agree with 9:17. 7:26 you must be a childhood fr...I agree with 9:17. 7:26 you must be a childhood friend of Weill's because those would be the only people who could put up with him.<br /><br />He is a terrible judge.
