.. as a law clerk/assistant to the attorney. Should be interesting. I have never been in court as a participant in any way, shape, or form before. (I've observed a couple of proceedings).

Quasi-pro bono case family law case... going to deal with a crappy father.

When he pauses and looks at you funny look around and then yell "BAN"!

The moderators there probably aren't as laid back as the ones here.

Temping, but I would rather not be disbarred before I am barred.

Good for you. I've been a practicing attorney for nine years now and have never been to court except for jury duty. :p

Haha one day my boss (also an attorney) came into the office in a suit. I asked him if he just came from church cause he never goes to court either :D

Turns out he's Jewish :eek: Glad he has a sense of humor.

I am in court all the time - The novelty wears off pretty quickly.

Watch and learn the things you should do in court, but, more importantly, learn the things you should NOT do (and for every judge it is different).

I've been in court too, but I doubt you'll feel as bad as I did, seeing as I was the defendant. I was once young and very dumb.
