So even if he was wrong. Would this make it okay?


nope, didn't say if it was ok or not. who am i to "judge" and i'm no attorney or law enforcement official. i do know that this is the south and there are places to show respect: Sunday Service, funerals, weddings and court. i also know that government was required in high school (25+ plus years ago) in baldwin county and one of the things we did was take a field trip to "circus court". we were told to "dress up" - boys in khakis/dockers and a dress shirt and tie; and girls in a dress or skirt/blouse combination.

maybe the court clerk failed to mention the rules of this particular judge's courtroom before the judge entered.

i only mentioned facts for folks not familiar with our local area.
