What are the implications of comments made by a federal district court in a witness testimony?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Rodriguez-Salinas, 101 F.3d 706 (9th Cir. 1996):

We conclude the district court's comments cannot be interpreted as supporting the witness's credibility. Instead, the district court properly was "controlling the orderly presentation of the evidence, and preventing undue repetition of testimony." United States v. Mostella, 802 F.2d 358, 361 (9th Cir.1986).
