Example Sentences
Retired San Luis Obispo County Superior Court Judge Roger Picquet, who was specially assigned to hear the case after San Francisco judges recused themselves in the matter, began the hearing by asking the parties if mediation was agreeable to everyone or if he would be “twisting people’s arms” by ordering it.
Usually when such cases can’t be privately mediated and a judge has to step in, none of the parties leave happy, Picquet said.
Picquet posed several questions during Monday’s hearing, including whether it was reasonable for Feinstein to expect some sort of disbursement — even if it wasn’t from the sale of the Stinson Beach home — given that it has been more than a year since her husband’s death.
“Some accounting of some credibility needs to be provided,” Picquet said.
In consultation with the parties, Picquet also set a schedule requiring the mediation be concluded by Dec. 11, unless an extension is requested, and a second court hearing on Jan. 22.
