My hearing was 11/7/14 Judge Burton started off the hearing with kind of ajoke smiling and making me feel at ease. He was very easy to talk to and I didn’t feel like I was being looked down at. I actually felt like I was talking to anold ffriend. My hearing lasted all of 15 minuets at the most, and while a V.E. was present the judge asked him no questions and he did not speak. He said that he was going to get things expeidited for me and I should receive his written decision in the next 2 to 3 weeks. After it ended my lawyer stated that I had won. I guess in all o the nervousness I didn’t catch him saying that but he did I guess. He definitely appreciates well documented cases that are easy to make a decision on I do remember that. This judge was fair kind hearted and like I stated before easy to talk to. Make sure you have your ducks in a row and all of your Dr backing you and you will have a pleasant experience with this judge. I did and would have regardless of the outcome
Judge Burton is a very pleasant gentleman and conducts his hearings in a relaxed, but attentive manner. He did some general questioning, then turned over to the rep. He did not ask for opening or closing statements. I think it is very advisable for the claimant to have explored all available State Vocatinal Rehab resources and if they have drawn unemployment, should provide details on jobs applied for, etc.
