1. The clerk was wearing a "chai" necklace. He wasn't very nice.
2. At some traffic courts, according to information I read online, defendants are entitled to see the complaining officer's notes before trial. My request to do so was refused. As it turned out, the cop didn't show, so I was lucky that way.
3. The sheriff's deputy/bailiff came over to me and said, "Chag kosher v'somayach." He then added that my tie was outside my collar. I quickly adjusted.
4. The first defendant in front of the judge gave her some lip. After she won her case. I couldn't believe it. The judge threatened to change her mind. "The last thing you want to do is come in here with an attitude," she said. As far as I'm concerned, when I'm in court, it's "Yes, your honor," "No, ma'am," and "Thank you, your Honor." That's it.

Was this in the Chicago District Court? Looks like there's several such courts in Cook County.
