Judge Neal Cabrinha is the cowboy of Santa Clara County Superior Court. He's spent two years herding thousands of limited liability civil cases -- disputes worth less than $25,000. "These cases cry out for efficiency," Cabrinha said. Lawyers say he has answered that cry. Cases used to stack up because, as Cabrinha sees it, lawyers had too much control of the docket. Despite being pushed out of the driver's seat, attorneys tip their hats to Cabrinha, saying he enforces his rules in a reasonable way.
