Both are current state judges on the Circuit bench. Judge Bloom received her JD from the University of Miami in 1988, and Judge Gayles received his JD from George Washington in 1993. Gayles has ties to the federal system as a former Assistant U.S. Attorney in the late 90s. Both will make excellent federal judges.
To clarify: Gayles was an *Assistant* U.S. Attorney, not THE U.S. Attorney.
ReplyDeleteBased on appearing before both Will Thomas and Darrin Gayles in state court, Gayles has much better judicial temperament, is more serious and thoughtful, and is more federal court material.

ReplyDelete11:55 -- fair point. Updated.
ReplyDeleteBloom has great judicial temperament and is qualified....although in truth, she is quite conservative vis a vis criminal matters. Do not look to her for any major departures or victories in suppression hearings.
ReplyDeleteproving again that the miami cabal has NO juice in DC once names leave miami.
ReplyDeletethornton gets to stay on the state bench
We'll see if the blue slips are returned.
ReplyDeleteMiami cabal has no juice in DC? Ask Judge Thomas that.
ReplyDeleteDipshit. Will never got to DC. I was referring to Thornton getting there twice and getting passed over. This ain't state court where if at first you don't succeed ....his ship has sailed . He's a capable state court Judge.
