Small-Claims Court

Re “Full-Court Press on Small Claims Division,” Feb. 21.

Having been a claimant in the small claims court of Commissioner Martin Green, I’m afraid I have to take exception to reporter James Ricci’s tribute. Even though I won a small victory in Division 114, I found Green to be a perfect example of judicial arrogance, a man with casual contempt for the law.

If The Times finds Green praise-worthy, it’s no wonder that most people regard the judicial system as a calamity beyond repair.
