A Fairfax County General District Court judge has been removed from all drunken-driving cases after he was cited with driving under the influence in Maryland in April, a court official said.

Judge Michael H. Cantrell, who has been on the bench for less than a year, was stopped in Calvert County on April 28, according to Maryland court records.

General District Court Chief Judge Michael Joseph Cassidy said Cantrell was removed from drunken-driving cases on May 10.

Cantrell did not immediately return a call for comment, and his attorney declined to comment on the case.

Cantrell has practiced law since 1989 and became a General District Court judge last July. He is scheduled to go to trial on the charge on Aug. 16.

Now he just needs to molest a child in order to have the qualifications necessary to run for Congress as a democrat! He could be Gerry Connolly's successor!

Sounds correct. Republicans have an affinity for molestation of little kids or profoundness of public bathroom homosexual infidelity.

Democrats are mostly fornicating with younger, eager, career driven, promiscuous caucasian females.

Does not apply to all, but those that are exposed fall along those lines.

It was Maryland, where even thinking about a having a drink constitutes DUI. Also he is still a judge. He can still have you locked up for up to a year.

You do not have to meet many judges before discovering that looks have little to do with whether someone gets appointed judge. Being friends the right people can help. Judges are appointed by the legislature. In Fairfax the recommendation process has two steps. The Committee makes its recommendations which can be Not Qualified, Qualified, Recommended or Highly Recommended. Then the members of the Fairfax Bar will vote endorsed, not endorsed or no opinion. These results are passed on to the legislature for consideration in choosing judges. Sometimes the legislature will follow the local bar association recommendations. Sometimes the legislature will go with someone else.

These were the attorneys who sought the last two vacancies in the General District Court. In this instance Cantrell and Stoney were appointed. Both had previously served as substitute judges, so they already had on the job experience.

http://www.fairfaxbar.org/general/custom.asp?page=JSFall2015_GDC

The General District Court hears misdemeanor criminal cases, is involved in the early stages of some felony cases, and deals with low value civil litigation and evictions, so many candidates in Fairfax tend to be attorneys who do criminal prosecutions, criminal defense or collections work. Juvenile & Domestic Relations District Court tends to have judges with divorce law, Department of Social Services or criminal law background.

Apparently he was not removed from all DWI cases as I was charged for DWI for having key in ignition of my vehicle at amtrak autotrain parking lot and i wasted a trip from key west to fairfax where i was on the docket for May 24th xourt date that didnt occure because xourt wasnt aware the police officer was on paternity leave and was rescheduled for August 8th at 2pm and have now wasted another trip to appear on his docket and am now after 2 trips...scheduled to appear infront of a different judge on 1October 10th. Fairfax needs to get thier act together.

The entire Fairfax County Judicial system is corrupt...including 99% of the county police. Money talks in this county...not right and wrong! Would love to see this guy in the slammer as well as a few other garbage judges, shady ass lawyers who rip off people’s hard earned money and the worthless police who have nothing better in the county but to hand out citations on drunk on public’s for looking wrong and a few day expired car inspection certificates. This county is a joke! The judges are even a bigger joke. I wish and pray that karma comes to many of them for what they do to citizens of this county. The circuit court nudges are the biggest jokes...it would be great to see the same things happen to them as what they hand out to others...would teAch them a lesson on over abused power and how they promote dysfunctional behavior in today’s society. It all starts with the corrupt judges...I blame them as they are the trickle down affect for a screwed up society!

He was found not guilty. Still on the bench in Fairfax. I vaguely knew him as an attorney. I always thought he was a little odd, and I was surprised when he got the judgeship.
