Arnie Adams storms into his oak-paneled law office and slams his leather briefcase down onto the antique library table he uses for his desk. Startled, Maria looks up and knows court did not go well. "What happened, Arnie?"

"It is critically important that you acknowledge the difference between holding the position of trial court judge and being a judge. . . the first thing to recognize is to fear the judge who uses first person singular when speaking from the bench. Teach yourself to use third person singular. "The court instructs you as follows " . . . By doing so . . . it reminds the people before you that it is not you, personally, making this decision but rather the court that holds this power."
