failure to appear? - A WARNING

a gentle but timely reminder
We all have a part to play
just because I am serving the summons
does not entitle me to declare a verdict
or issue a sentance


Just like the judicial system....

The summons is served by the sherrif
If there is no appropriate response
then the warrant is issued
the case is called by the judge
the jury is seated
the judge is seated
the court is called to order
the charges are read
plea is entered
witnesses are called by the prosecution
more witnesses are examined by the defense
sidebar
summary
prosecution rests
defense rests
jury admonished
jury retires
court adjourns
court resumes
jury reads the verdict
judge rules
THE SENTENCING
the marshalls escort the defendant

these were done from memory
they may be wrong...but close enough
