I once had a client who, upon being convicted of a drug distribution offense, got "off" with only six months. The prosecutor later told me that, on his way to the lock-up, my client allegedly said, "If they think this is going to keep me off the stuff, they're crazy". Funny how stuff like that pops up in your head decades later....
I'm sure you've heard this before, but I have to acknowledge that, presumably based on your statement, you are/were an attorney with the last name of 'Court'.
Years ago my congregation included a Sheriff's Deputy named Crook. He once related the confused response of of a caller to the jail when he answered the phone, 'Crook here' -- "May I please speak to one of the officers?"
For him it was just the cost of doing business. Trump has the same attitude about all of the civil litigation (e.g., the Carroll case); it's just money. I really don't think the difference with criminal cases has penetrated his head yet.
IтАЩm sure thereтАЩs a nice country club, white collar prison available for him. Too bad some secret service agents may have to serve his sentence with him.
This is spot on. When you hear reports of the stress and tension as the indictments are prepared and at hand, itтАЩs just a glimmer of the penetration that is to come. Karma!!

Guilty.
(I see what you did there....)

Hopefully you were never found in contempt of yourself.
It could be a pseudonym, or nom de plume. Judge William Wayne Justice, however, was real, as was a Judge Feloni in Cambridge.
As was Justice Learned Hand.
Reminds me of Arrested Development's 'Mock Trial with J. Reinhold' starring Judge Reinhold.

And he cheats everyone who has ever worked for him. He's notorious for not paying contractors and other contract employees.
He probably thinks heтАЩs only going to have to pay a fine convicted.
Did you check out the prison sentences that go with each of the indictments?
IтАЩm sure thereтАЩs a nice country club, white collar prison available for him. Too bad some secret service agents may have to serve his sentence with him.
That is actually a good point, and funny. Does he still get protection in prison?
I hope not!

I dunno, his freakouts on Cheaptwitter seem to demonstrate some awareness.
He does that for everything that doesnтАЩt go his way. Look up petulant in the dictionary. There is his picture.
And if it did penetrate, what is there to find in a vacuum?
