Education and career


Born in Havana, Cuba, Linares received a Bachelor of Arts degree from Jersey City State College in 1975 and a Juris Doctor from Temple University Beasley School of Law in 1978. He was a supervising attorney of the New York City Department of Investigation from 1978 to 1980. He was in private practice in New Jersey from 1980 to 2000. He was a judge on the Essex County Superior Court, New Jersey from 2000 to 2002.



District court service


On August 1, 2002, Linares was nominated by President George W. Bush to a seat on the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey vacated by Alfred J. Lechner, Jr.. He was confirmed by the United States Senate on November 14, 2002, and received his commission on December 3, 2002. He became Chief Judge on May 31, 2017.



Notable case


In February 2016, Mercedes-Benz was sued by private plaintiffs alleging its BlueTec engines violate standards in a manner similar to the Volkswagen emissions scandal.[1] On December 6, 2016, Judge Linares threw out the lawsuit, finding the plaintiffs had alleged no standing.[2]
