There is a difference in being kind and being a pushover. Being a pushover is always being kind, even if the person you are dealing with is being cruel to you. The successful people are people that know the difference between the two. Judge Bloodworth is perceptive because he can tell the difference between the two and act upon it.
The crowd of people sit in the courtroom with long pants and jackets on waiting for their turn to approach the Judge. Most of them are fidgeting in their seats with the thought of going up to the front of the room, where a curly haired man sits with his long black robes on. An elderly approaches the Judge as his name is called. They begin to discuss the elderly man’s reason for getting a ticket. He passed a firetruck that was going forty-five on the highway. The truck had its light on, and though it only had one light on it, the firetruck was on its way to a fire. All the other firetrucks were at a parade, so this truck was the only one the fire department had left. The Judge explains in a soft voice that it is illegal to pass a fire truck while it has its lights on. The elderly man explains that he understood this, but didn’t realize that the truck only had the

He approached the Judge with a smirk to plead on his speeding ticket. The arrogant man plead guilty and asked to get supervision on his ticket. Judge Bloodworth patiently explained that the man would have to go to traffic school. The man then decided that he wanted to have an attitude, and say that he didn’t need to go to traffic school. He said that the Judge should just give him supervision and let him get back to his job. Judge Bloodworth attempted to explain that he couldn’t do that, until the man continued to give him an attitude. The Judge decided that since the man wanted to be rude he didn’t need the supervision, and decided that he would just have to pay the fine in full. He continued the
A couple days later, Buck is outraged. He goes to Tracy’s house again screaming for her to come out of the house. This time he doesn’t let up. Tracy then calls the police again and tells them that Buck is outside her house again and wants a patrol car to come by the house. The officer takes a detour back to the station. The officer takes forever to get to the house.
Kindness can really make a difference in a person's attitude. In “A Christmas Carol”, the Cratchits and Scrooge's nephew Fred show kindness to Scrooge, even though Scrooge showed quite the opposite to them. Or in “Thank you M’am”, when Ms. Jones makes Roger food and gives him money to buy his shoes, instead of reporting him to the police. Even in “Little Things Are Big”, when Jesus decides to help people even if he has to face prejudism. These stories all show turning points, and these examples show
Fear and confusion plays a huge part in the criminal justice system because of the huge number of cases and facilities unable to handle them.

“The Judge’s Wife” is not a long story, but in those few pages Allende creates a piece readers can understand to the point of empathy. Throughout the piece the use of theme, setting and character development make this story effective in developing a deep story in a small amount of time. Allende does an excellent job of writing a short story. Even though the story lacks symbolism it makes up for that lacking by making effective use of setting to really pull the story together and develop the story completely.
When we arrived at the location, we struggled to make sure we were parking in the correct location. The sign at the nearest parking lot said the parking was for “court business”. We weren’t sure what “business” was defined as. To ensure we were in the correct place we called the courthouse for confirmation. Walking into the courthouse was intimidating. There were two security guards
In deciding whether or not a person is good, all of their characteristics must be looked at. That person might look good on the outside, but if their heart is exposed, they may not look as perfect as they thought. In Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar, Brutus is a perfect example of this idea. He is sympathetic, kind, and generous, but when his motives are questioned, he does not look so sensitive. Brutus is not an honorable man.
The architecture of the courtroom establishes clear power disparities within the courtroom setting. The physical dimensions of Courtroom 5.1 were organised in such a way that the hierarchal nature of the court is visually clear from the moment you step into the room. The stratification of power amongst the courtroom actors is displayed through the ‘structural elevation’ of the seating (Carlen, 1976, pp. 50). The magistrate is seated at the uppermost level at the bench facing the defendant, solicitors and public gallery. This particular positioning demonstrates pre-eminence which allows com...
“The Conscience of the Court” written by Zora Neale Hurston explores the life of a courtroom in the late nineteenth century. Laura Lee Kimble is a strong, loyal, and humble African American woman. Laura has a close connection with Mrs. Clairborne, her close friend and employer, and is loyal to their friendship. This friendship and loyalty is so strong that Laura refused to leave Mrs. Clairborne three times even when her husband asked if they could live somewhere with more money. Clement Beasley, the plaintiff, claims that Mrs. Clairborne borrowed money from him to purchase furnishings for her house; however, when the payment for this money was owed Mrs. Clairborne did not pay him back. Mr. Beasley decides to show up at the house to take away all of Mrs. Clairborne’s furnishings that, he claims, the money was supposed to be used for. Laura shares with the court that the furnishings actually are family heirlooms that have been passed down from Mrs. Clairborne’s parents and husband’s family. Mr. Beasley also claims that Laura assaulted him up to try and stop him from gathering Mrs. Clairborne’s furnishings; however, Laura claims that she assaulted him because he was rude and trying to force himself into the house to steal Mrs. Clairborne’s furnishings. The judge of the court struggles with what his conscience is telling him is right even when the facts were against Laura. The judge calls for a note that was signed by Mrs. Clairborne, stating she had borrowed money and for what purpose, to be brought as evidence to the court; however, it is explained that the note was not taken as evidence due to the belief that the note was a waste of evidence. The judge then asks that the note be picked up and brought into the courtroom to be placed...
This event overall was very quality. They loaded the auditorium with people as a judge sat on the top of the stage. They escorted in a :criminal” in. Later we would learn he was a drunk driver. He had killed an innocent teen, and injured two others. The girls parents are testifying against him for the murder of their daughter.
99% of women and 91% of men in Chicago were honest when it came to putting a dollar down for a cup of lemonade based on the honor system (Honest Tea). Honesty allows for a strengthening of character along with relationships of all kinds. Unbiasedness can result in keeping friendships, since neutrality has been chosen instead of certain sides. Another important trait is selflessness. This is defined as the state of being unselfish; or putting other people before yourself. A judge should be required to have all of these traits, but some do not behold these characteristics. Reverend Danforth is not an acceptable judge because he does not hold satisfying qualities that make for proper justice. Danforth is very selfish due to his
Walking into a revival tent in the midst of a passionate sermon by Reverend Green, the judge’s appearance immediately shocks those in attendance, causing a halt to all conversation and the service itself (6). With this , he

The courtroom is a place where cases are heard and deliberated as evidence is produced to prove whether the accused person is innocent or guilty. Different courtroom varies depending on the hierarchy and the type of cases, they deliberate upon in the courtroom. In the United States, the courts are closely interlinked through a hierarchical system at either the state or the federal level. Therefore, the court must have jurisdiction before it takes upon a case, deliberate, and come up with a judgment on it. The criminal case is different from the civil cases, especially when it comes to the court layout. In this essay, I will explain how I experienced a courtroom visit and the important issues are learnt from the visit.
The prosecution and defense had tables and body language almost completely directed at us, as if we were the jury instead of the actors behind the lawyers on stage. Core witness testimonies were our main dish, placed in the middle-front of stage. But we had various ancillary first-hand accounts to chew on, and these testimonies were done on the left and right of the audience, in the back corners of stage, or other places that made them seem like small but unavoidable bits of information in our head. There were segments that split the enormous centerpiece in two, opening the doors to a different scene. Harvey’s political speech was an important one; inspirational music and patriotic images made me feel almost as excited as his supporters.
Farrington chugs a beer and goes back to the office and is supposed to have copied out an important document for a case. He picks up the documents and takes them up to Mr. Alleyne's office, hoping he won't notice that they aren't done. All Farrington is thinking about is going out to the bar again but he's completely broke. While he's thinking about this, he doesn't even hear the boss calling his name. The boss catches the fact that Farrington didn't finish the documents, and he starts screaming at him.
