Oh yes. The magistrate in yesterday’s court is INDEED ‘the law’. What he says, goes.<\/p>\n

When he said to Bill’s lawyer, ‘I’ll make the decisions here,’ he meant it. <\/p>\n

And what he probably meant was, ‘Don’t come in here with your juvenile attempts at bullying me or your ex-wife or anyone else. I’ve been hearing cases of abuse in the Domestic Violence Court 22 for longer than I care to think about. And I know EVERY trick. And you guys are amateurs. Bill — the FACT that you’re a lawyer, the FACT that you BROUGHT a lawyer with you, the FACT that you act all obsequious in my court while your ex-wife stands proud and states the facts — THESE facts mean YOU are NOT the LAW.’<\/p>\n

He served the protection order with no revisions. And also pre-issued a ready-signed warrant for the arrest of Bill Morris for any transgressions of the many clauses in the protection order. <\/p>\n

Neat, huh?<\/p>\n

This pic was drawn in court in my Moleskine while Jennifer was at the stand. I then scanned the pic, brought it into Photoshop CS3, where I added captions and colour. On my Toshiba Tecra M4 tablet pc.<\/i><\/p>\n
