Sitting by Designation

I expect some possible confusion from the fact that the Judge is listed as being the chief judge of the United States District Court for the District of Alaska, and this case is in Arizona. It appears that Judge Sedwick, and there's only one district judge with that last name, and the first name and middle initial match as well, is "sitting by designation" in Arizona on a bunch of cases, various Google searches shows a pattern of that recently. I don't have a cite good enough to put my claim in the article that he's doing so in this case, but a bunch of notes like this one [1] (search for "designation") is convincing enough to me that this is the same Judge I'm linking to, and the wl to Sedwick is not in error. --j⚛e decker ^talk 02:24, 26 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

In the external link, it lists the presiding judges as H Russel Holland and John W Sedwick; both of whom are in Alaska. ONEder Boy (talk) 00:48, 5 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Move

I moved this entry from the old case name Collins v. Brewer to the new one Diaz v. Brewer, and I expanded it some, though it could always use more work, especially explication of Sedwick's opinion. And it use an overall review for general editing, I'm sure. Bmclaughlin9 (talk) 18:02, 8 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
