The Fourteenth Judicial District Judicial Performance Commission voted 7 to 0 that he meets performance standards, with three vacancies on the commission. It writes that survey responses "were statistically unrepresentative and lacked sufficient context to provide meaningful feedback to the Commission."
The commission writes that "Judge Catanzarite possesses an excellent judicial temperament and treats those in his courtroom with patience and respect" and that he "displays good control of his courtroom with pro se and represented litigants alike." It reports that he "has developed his skill in delivering oral rulings for expediency and continues to strengthen his organization and clarity in oral rulings" and commends the quality of his written rulings.
The commission writes that it is "pleased that Judge Catanzarite has embraced virtual courtroom proceedings to support accessibility of the Courts" and "encourages Judge Catanzarite to require video appearance (as opposed to audio-only) whenever possible to promote traditional standards of decorum." It notes his part in the CourtCall pilot program and his work on pro se litigants' use of artificial intelligence to generate pleadings, and finds that he "ranks high in demeanor, control, fairness, and efficiency."
