The DBR covers Judge Bandstra's departure to JAMS. Good luck to him! There are some good stories about him in the article:
Bandstra’s legal experience includes three years with Katten Muchin in
Chicago followed by three more as an assistant U.S. attorney trying 30
cases under Stanley Marcus. He also spent three years at Fowler White
Burnett handling medical malpractice for firm shareholder and co-founder
Henry Burnett.
“Henry’s my mentor and the person I respect most,” Bandstra said.
He said his experience as a magistrate can help sparring sides see their legal situation more realistically.
“One of the things I’ve enjoyed most as a judge is the settlement of cases where I’ve had some input,” Bandstra said.

South Florida’s district judges chose Bandstra as a magistrate in 1989,
U.S. District Judge Eugene Spellman telephoned to welcome him with two
interesting details.
“First of all, you weren’t my first choice,” Bandstra recalled him saying. “That took me back a little bit.
“The other thing was, ‘You should know you got the judges’ vote on the first ballot, which has never happened.’ ”

Nice revisionist history. Obama lost the first debate in large part for what he said.
