| Not having read the transcript, I don't know how the experts introduced themselves or wanted to be addressed or were addressed by counsel. I suspect that Judge Jones was just following the testimony on this one. In my experience judges always referred to the witnesses as they requested to be referred to. Also, I don't think there is much difference between the two in the mind of most folk. Some professors prefer "Professor" because it is more exclusive set, but some prefer "Dr." because they think it sounds more prestigious and separates them from the non-doctor professors. At Howard University, in most departments Dr. is the typical appellation. Not in the law school though, though we all have J.Ds. So yes, IMO you are reading too much into it.
