Gave me a decent price on the Springfield Armory Mil-spec 1911A1, IIRC. Must have changed prices recently then, or maybe because of it? Good luck to him anyways.

It's called "Judge Shopping" and it's a well known amongst Lawyers opperating in NYC. Weinstein is possibly the best known, and most egregious example of it.

Judge shopping is not new. All attorneys who have to go before a judges do it. If they can in some way get onto a pertecular judge's docket to give their client an edge they will do it. Been there got the video. ;)
