Most liberal/civil libertarian judges

Post by Anonymous User » Thu Jun 05, 2014 3:52 pm

Who do you guys think are the most liberal or civil libertarian federal judges out there? I know Reinhardt, Kozinski, and Schiendlin are a few, but am clueless as to others.

Judge Berzon comes to mind. But I agree, it is difficult to know precisely what you are asking.

I might be a bit Tenth Circuit-centric, but Lucero also comes to mind.

From context it seems pretty obviously inclusive.

Still not sure what the question is, but Weinstein (EDNY) comes to mind.

Karlton (E.D. Cal), Henderson (N.D. Cal.), and Adelman (E.D. Wi.) are three who come to mind.

Pretty tough to know what you are asking when Reinhardt and Kozinski are so far apart ideologically.
