A RECORD TO BE PROUD OF
Judge Williams has a remarkable record of making legally correct decisions. When a party believes the judge has erred, they may appeal the judge's decision to the Court of Appeals and seek a reversal. Trial judges' decisions are routinely appealed.
Of the hundreds of criminal matters Judge Williams has decided, the prosecution has never appealed his decisions. Not one.
Judge Williams has been reversed only once in a criminal case - when he imposed too much community service. Of the hundreds of decisions Judge Williams has made in civil cases such as divorces, property disputes, and negligence lawsuits, all have been upheld.
This sterling record "is a credit to Judge Williams' legal acumen and devotion to equality under the law." Retired Umatilla and Morrow Counties Circuit Court Judge Jeff Wallace.
