Would you believe, for the rest of the day, I kept saying "THAT was a court?!?!"



We waited. Everyone left except the court personnel. They never called our name and the judge started signing stuff (I guess the ex-partes? didn't call any of them) So My daughter boldly stands up and says, Your honor, I would like to discuss my invitation to appear in this court today." He about dropped his teeth. The SA did a double take and the rest of then just stared.



She did wonderfully. She stated her Christian name, Upper and Lower and asked if she might ask a few questions. She started by asking if she was expected to make a plea without having al lthe facts. The judge said, Yes, you enter a plea and then we will deal with yu. she said, Sir, do not the rules of this court proceed on the presumption of innocence? He says, Yes, you plead not guilty. She said, again I ask, do you expect me to enter a plea without full knowledge of the facts? He again says yes. This is becoming a vicious circle, but we are nothing if not persistant, right?



How's that bit Jerseee?
