This weekend a dinner was held in honor of Judge Federico A. Moreno, celebrating his 35 years of service on the Southern District of Florida bench. The event brought together members of Judge Moreno’s family, his courtroom staff, his local law clerks, and their families.
Over dinner, the Judge regaled the room with personalized stories about each of his clerks, recalling important cases, their accomplishments, and their not-so-serious gaffes. The Judge also took time to thank the hosts, Mariela Martínez-Cid (Moreno ‘01–‘02, ‘06, ‘08–Present) and Ricardo Martínez-Cid (King ‘01–‘02), for what was objectively, despite the author’s many biases, a beautiful event.
Be on the lookout for impersonators. I don’t think anyone will go full V for Vendetta, but I can imagine another judge, maybe Judge Ruiz (Moreno ‘05–‘06), wearing Judge Moreno’s face on the bench.

Nice to see some good news from the district. Looks like it was a great turnout, especially for August.
What say you?
I dunno - I thought enjoining Alcatraz was pretty good news
10;28. Perhaps you have some room in uour house for these poor folks, all of whom either have oitstanding orders for deportation or are here illegally. Mi for one feel sorry for them but not as sorry as I do for Americans who lose job opportunities because of these folks. By the way, dors it make any difference that Judge Williams order will probably be trashed by the Eleventh Circuit?
They had fucking houses asshole. They were taken from those houses by the government to be put into an illegally-constructed detention facility unfit for human habitation in the middle of their Everglades, where the state is illegally enforcing federal immigration law, at tremendous taxpayer cost, so that Ron DeSantis could score some political points. They're our neighbors, our maids, our lawn guys, our car repairmen, small business owners throughout the county, and the army of undocumented immigrants necessary to cook and clean and make this tourist economy we all rely on work.
12:59 before you resort to name calling, try putting your phone down and instead of scrolling only fans pages all day go clean someone else’s home and mow their lawn after you do your’s of course. Elitist much?
No moron I have a job and it isn't cleaning houses or mowing lawns. I, like 99.9 percent of American citizens, don't want to do many of the jobs undocumented immigrants do. That's why they're necessary and benefit your and my well-being. That is a separate issue from whether a state-run jail enforcing federal immigration law built without permits or environmental review in the middle of the Everglades, our hometown natural treasure, is legal, which it isn't.
