In late 2015; David appears once again and was promoted from family court judge to civil court judge and criminal court judge for the criminal case against former Port Charles resident Jerry Jacks with the charges of various crimes against the citizens of Port Charles and Maxie's cousin Robin Scorpio-Drake in which Sonny's attorney, half-brother, and former district attorney Ric Lansing become Robin's lawyer. The people of Port Charles testifies against Jerry including Robin and Sonny. The jury in the Port Charles courthouse in David's courtroom finds Jerry guilty and Judge Walters sentences him to life in prison at Pentonville Penitentiary with no possibility of parole.

On June 21; David returns as the judge in family court after he had been recently promoted to civil court judge and criminal court judge two years after his friend, colleague, and female counterpart Natalie Rawles took on the family court case of Charlotte Cassadine in which David was unable to handle in his absence and David handles the court case of Wiley after Georgie and Avery which Natalie returned the favor to David while he was absent. Walters holds Willow in contempt and has her taken into custody when she won’t turn over records of her baby to the court. He was later replaced by Valentin Cassadine afterwards.

David later advocates for people of all races and with him are his colleagues James Horowitz, Rachel Lasser, Richard Lowe, Henry Pierce, and Natalie Rawles.
