princeperch's afternoon in the local mags court
Discussion
If I have a day off sometimes I poodle down the local mags court and sit at the back for a couple of cases and just observe what happens.
I did such a thing this afternoon, and it occurred to me when I was sitting quietly at the back
Why oh why oh why do people not dress even remotely smart to go to court, especially the defendants?
Most of the people there were dressed in tracksuits, wearing sunglasses, earings (the men), trainers ect.
Nearly all the defendants today tried to talk over the mags or the clerk, and were surley in the dock. I really dont understand it.
I wear a suit to just go and observe. Why do some people think lizzie duke gold chains and trakky bottoms are appropriate to wear in front of the beak?

The answer is simple: That to them IS smart dress...
maybe so, but what are the odds of all these people being idiots with no common sense? Some of them were obviously really trying with a white ben sherman button down , school trousers, chains, and "loafers".
In front of any one who can take away your liberty/driving licence ect = a suit.
Why dont they see that?
