Finding Favor with Judges ...

This may be a "Tough One" to do since so many feel judges are biased.
HOWEVER....

• Get your way the Right Way!

Having a judge rule against you because he doesn't "like" you isn't a good thing!
It helps to have the judge "on your side".

But!

There's only ONE WAY to get a judge's favor.

• Know what you're doing, do it well, and don't waste the court's time!

• Currying favor with flattery doesn't work. Judges get the "sweet treatment" every day. Trying to butter up a judge with flowery words will work against you. The judge won't respect you. The judge will wonder what you're hiding.

• Challenging a judge's "oath of office" won't win points, either.

• Nor will arguing over flag etiquette or your name in ALL CAPITAL LETTERS.

Know what you're doing, do it well, AND DON'T WASTE THE COURT'S TIME!
The next case coming up may involve a young child whose mother abandoned him, or a little girl with ugly burn scars on her once-pretty face because an uncle thinks it's fun to extinguish cigars on her cheeks!

• Learn how to work within the system, instead of trying to make end-runs around the rules with silly games that the judges are quite familiar with already.
• Learn how to state your position clearly with properly-drafted pleadings, motions, and memoranda.
• Learn why, how, and when to object with solid grounds the court cannot ignore.
• Learn how to examine witnesses.

Show the court that you made an effort to learn what justice requires, instead of wasting everyone's time and patience!
