@drrjv she often seems to ask questions that come across as someone not familiar with the case material, who didn’t do their homework and read the briefs.

That might be good for journalists who need to be the voice of the people, asking questions that have straightforward answers, but it’s concerning when they’re coming from a judge in the process of working on a case.

She often seems like she should have a better understanding of the case before she starts spending time asking such basic questions.
