Abstract

Generally when a trial gets underway, there is one judge who sets the ground rules, oversees the juror-selection process, rules on motions and generally keeps things moving along. It is the judge who largely acts as the trial’s referee. And one thing all litigants know: Don’t irritate the referee. It can make your case infinitely more difficult.
