Douglas P. Woodlock

A civil litigation/trial attorney with 40 years of experience commenting here. Woodlock was never fit to be appointed any type of judge let alone a federal judge. He is not particularly intelligent and has a vindictive dismissive nasty personality. His judicial opinions are not that well written. Having Woodlock assigned to your case is the worst possible assignment in the district. When you inform other attorneys that Woodlock was assigned to your case, the response is usually one of immediate sympathy.

Despite clear and unequivocal evidence of Constitutional violations (including 1st, 4th, and 14th Amendment) and despite my attorney's lengthy catalogue (citing over twenty valid precedents), Judge Woodlock dismissed my case. Republican ideology (the rights of police are more important than those of the civilians they abuse) trumped jurisprudence (no play on words intended!). Shameful!
