Having been there, I'll do my best to keep cameras out of the Court. You are the one who is not comprehending how tough the administration of justice from all angles (those clerks you mention, the bailiffs, the recorders, judges, attorneys and, of course, the parties for whom we are all assembled). If you'd think about this, you'd recognize why almost all trial attorneys have no objection to print media but draw the line at flash-bulbs in the Court-Room. Lighten up, brother: you've won the fight almost everywhere. But, thank heavens, no here! Marc msmall@roanoke.infi.net FAX: +540/343-7315 Cha robh bas fir gun ghras fir!
