Judicial Feedback Survey for Judge Sharad H. Desai

Thursday, September 10, 2026

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF ARIZONA
JUDICIAL FEEDBACK SURVEY FOR JUDGE SHARAD H. DESAI

 

Judge Sharad H. Desai of the United States District Court for the District of Arizona asked the Federal Judicial Center (FJC) to survey attorneys to obtain feedback about his judicial performance. The FJC is the research and education agency for the federal courts. The judge's decision to ask the FJC to conduct this survey is entirely voluntary and reflects Judge Desai’s ongoing commitment to provide the highest level of public service possible. 

During the week of September 14, the FJC will send an invitation email to attorneys who have appeared before Judge Desai. The email will explain how to access and complete an online questionnaire.

The survey procedure is set up so responses are anonymous, even to the researchers. Research staff at the FJC will compile the responses and provide Judge Desai a report. The report will include the comments that are provided in response to the open-ended questions and tables aggregating the results for the closed-ended questions. The survey report is exclusively for Judge Desai’s use in improving his performance.

If you do not receive an invitation email from the FJC and are an attorney who wants to participate, please contact Meghan Dunn at mdunn@fjc.gov.

If you have questions about the survey or encounter any technical difficulties, please also contact Meghan Dunn.
