In the criminal justice system, as you know, there are steps that have
to be completed before a trial takes place, and among these is a grand
jury proceeding.

Now, unfortunately, many grand juries are little more than sessions
that rubber stamp whatever a prosecutor wishes, but not all are that way.

In some jurisdictions, parties to a civil suit have to go through some
sort of arbitration before a trial can be scheduled.


Whatever. I hope the woman and her lawyer in Tom's case were laughed
out of the courtroom, along with a stern admonishment by the judge.

This is why we need Tort reform and "loser pays" put into law.
