Otis D. Wright

Should be removed ! Sexist !! Telling my friend to be quiet after asking her questions. Ruling against her when it was a clear case of an abusive ex spouse stealing half of a property they purchased together and he made 250k off of! Not even a FAIR JUDGEMENT for her to get her investment back. Shameful!!

Disappointing and embarassing to have judges like these in federal courts. He is the epitome of the long bygone kings who executed people on a whim. If you dare not to kneel before him and kiss the ground he is walking, your days will be counted. He does not treat attorneys especially women like human, has no sense of fundamental fairness, or compassion and is biased. He has no judicial restraint and his behavior in court is bizarre, compulsive and vindictive. His rulings are infused with improperly vicious commentary and are inconsistent based on his mood on a given day. His courtroom is a minefield and you are doomed if you step the wrong way. I cannot believe, that there is no judicial oversight over these kind of abusive arbitrary and capricious judiciary in one of the most democratic and liberal countries.

I won a Writ of Mandate in CA Superior Court against my employer. Otis Wright threw out my Federal case with no testimony and stated he didn't care what the CA Court had decided. I then heard stories about his baseball bat and he and his broke ass wife filing for bankruptcy when he makes $223,400 a year. My employer subsequently caved and settled with me without a law suit. I blame George Bush for appointing this idiot.

This judge verbally attacked me my first day in court for asking a question. He told me to sit down and shut up and not to speak until spoken to. I never spoke again. He ruled in my case before I had a chance to present my case which is a violation of my constitutional rights. I went home and filmed a 30 min suicide video because I lost all hope in fairness and justice. He rule in my case while I was on a 5150 hold after I attempted suicide. I could not afford an attorney.

This judge could be the reason we have such crisis in our country over COVID. He is originally from Alabama. An ex LAPD officer with Western University training shouldn’t be on Federal bunch . He through out our class action lawsuit against cast iron maker in 2013 . Environment toxicity will show as a major contributing factor not only in COVID but in other cases such as Seattle children deaths in six babies. One day country will wake up to realize the deep incompetent legal system we have . Without fair justice system no society will last . History is best evidence.

This is my kind of judge. He's on the ball, and goes out of his way to be fair and he watches out for the little guy.

Utterly incompetent judge with the worst judicial temperament I have ever seen. He does not know or understand the law, thus he is completely incapable of applying the law fairly or serving as a useful part of the judicial system. [Redacted by Editor]

Solid judge. Keeps the docket moving. Doesn't waste the parties' time. Often looks for fair results.

I have only had limited experience with Judge Wright and it has been favorable. As one commenter wrote, he is not afraid to make the call and get rid of bogus cases. In my case, he tossed a complaint on a motion to dismiss without leave to amend (which was the right call) when several other judges wasted defense counsel's time in allowing the same plaintiff leave to amend, wasting everyone's time. I have another case pending with him now on the same type of issue, so we'll see how he handles it, but sometimes we need judges who will toss BS cases and let the Ninth Circuit sort it out. He saved my client a lot of money by doing so, and helped others out in other identical cases filed by the same plaintiff. FYI, he decided my case on the papers, so I cannot opine on his demeanor.

Pathetic excuse for a federal judge. This guy has a horrible temperament and frequently yells at attorneys and belittles people in his courtroom. He is supposedly the only federal judge in history to have declared bankruptcy, yet he still has civil matters pending before him all the time. I hope the Justice Dept. is keeping an eye on this guy.

Extremely rude and arrogant from the bench. Influenced by outsiders on Court business. Utter disregard for CA law in my opinion.
