The Tenth Circuit has provided lists of non-exclusive factors that courts consider when determining whether force was objectively reasonable. In Estate of Larsen v. Murr, 511 F.3d 1255 (10th Cir. 2008), the Tenth Circuit stated: "In assessing the degree of threat facing officers, then, we consider a number of non-exclusive factors. These include (1) whether the officers ordered the suspect to drop his weapon, and the suspect's compliance with police commands; (2) whether any hostile motions were made with the weapon towards the officers; (3) the distance separating the officers and the suspect; and (4) the manifest intentions of the suspect. See, e.g., Walker v. City of Orem, 451 F.3d 1139, 1159 (10th Cir.2006); Jiron, 392 F.3d at 414-15; Zuchel v. Spinharney, 890 F.2d 273, 274 (10th Cir.1989)."

As responsible citizens in this city and in this nation, we must hold him accountable to the highest standards of justice, integrity, and fair-mindedness. This requires the judge to isolate himself from personal biases, historical relationships, and external influences, and excuse himself from the case if that is not possible. For this trial, the court had a law-and-order judge with a long history of close relationships with police. Additionally, he is a citizen of the very city that was being sued.

Having worked with the police intimately for 11 years, Judge Wormuth shows a strong pro-cop law-and-order bias and should not be trying wrongful death and illegal use of force by cops. Unless given a video of a police officer outright murdering someone, it is simply impossible for him to ever rule against them.

Just completed his first civil trial with him. he was great. Even handed, fair, explained his reasoning. It was a very complex civil case, and he got the issues. I would definitely consent to proceed with him in the future.
