There was a female lawyer on BOR tonight who has gone before him many times and said he is a wonderful judge, that he has to be like this because he is used to dealing with families and children and his "humor" relaxes the families and children and gets them to open up.

Said she has seen him carry on a banter with a child for an hour or more and the kids open up to him because of his style. She said she always likes going before him... Judge Napolitano also said, in the same segment, that you don't judge a probate/family court judge in the same manner you judge a criminal judge... said it's apples and oranges. We are just not used to seeing family court-type hearings.

I saw the interview. I've spent some time in family court, and know the difference. He knows better too.

He should have never allowed the cameras in there. All deference was paid to HKS. Judge didn't even allow "Texas" to ask his own questions. It turned into the Barf and Oprie opera. IMO, Vergie and her attorneys were treated like dirt. I hope Vergie wins her appeal and tells all of them to kiss her hiney!!
