We have conditional and absolute discharge, ie. the court saying don't do it again, and don't bug us with this trivia respectively to deal with this sort of sillyness. Isn't there something similar in the states? No, Sir. Life can get a bit unpleasant for a judge who lets things get tied up with too much effort for too little crime. Our Federal judges serve for life or good behavior (U.S. Constitution, Art. III, Sec. 1). Not much can happen to such an official who does get "tied down" in trivia. It's not perfect but it helps Perhaps. On the other hand it does keep the heavy hand of any given administration from bringing direct pressure on judges for some specific outcome. Bill Kambic If, by any act, error, or omission, I have, intentionally or unintentionally, displayed any breedist, disciplinist, sexist, racist, culturalist, nationalist, regionalist, localist, ageist, lookist, ableist, sizeist, speciesist, intellectualist, socioeconomicist, ethnocentrist, phallocentrist, heteropatriarchalist, or other violation of the rules of political correctness, known or unknown, I am not sorry and I encourage you to get over it. |
