Mr. Craig Constantine Dethomasis is a lawyer practicing criminal defense, criminal law, driving while intoxicated and 14 other areas of law. Craig received a B.S.B.A. degree from University of Florida in 1980, and has been licensed for 43 years. Craig practices at DeThomasis & Buchanan, P.A. in Gainesville, FL.
Prepared for court hearings, case management, etc. in most detailed and confident manner. We have seen other attorneys, judges, and other courtroom personnel treat Mr. DeThomasis with great respect. When I mention his name and the fact he represents my son, it is always followed by "you have one of the best criminal attorneys available".
He has handled this detailed and on-going case in a manner I greatly respect. Our family is thankful to have his services.
Fragile ego, tyrannical, demanding, disrespectful, oathbreaker. Judge Dethomasis thinks he can abuse the first amendment at will and he thinks that he is the law instead of being a judge who upholds the law. He is placing Gag orders on all of his cases and his retaliation for uploading publicly accessible video of his proceedings is a clear representation of his fragile ego and ineptitude. Judge Dethomasis, you are not the absolute authority on who gets to exercise their first amendment rights, even in your own courtroom. Your tantrums are now public record, are accessible on YouTube to the public, and you have been judged a coward by your peers and by your community. The Streisand effect is in full swing, and you won’t win this one. Just take the loss, admit you were wrong and either take the initiative to improve….or retire. I hope you choose to improve, apologize, and serve your community with dignity and respect, current qualities you seem to lack. Good luck, God bless.
This Judge should be removed immediately & placed under an investigation! He gives legal advice while sitting on the bench, but only to 1 party! He clearly has bias against the other party. I don't know or care for either party but fair is fair. The law is the LAW! No one is above the law. Another Judge should step on. I am actually wondering what other non-video'ed cases he's sat over he's done & if they should be evaluated. If he thinks he's untouchable with cameras on, it leads a person to wonder what is done behind the "closed door" so to speak. Is our justice system so jacked-up that there is no one to turn to? A Judge whom can make himself deny a party who have asked the Judge to recuse himself is rather suspicious. I will be watching the videos. I hope the Officals check into this Judge!
Craigy is a disgrace to the judicial system. His black robe syndrome. He wouldn't know the laws if he fell over it. He should be removed from the judicial branch of government. Craig is the worst judge I've ever seen on the bench. How is he allowed to conduct his court like he's God. SMH
