[sara3]

1) do ordinary citizens need to understand the way the court operates?
2) I don't feel it would run so well if everyone wore jeans and t-shirts.
3) homework?

Good answer sara3.
If posters are going to ask hoework question I wish they'd :
a) ask politely and say "please"
b) Go to the trouble of phrasing the question properly (this one is okay)
c) put the question in context- are they expected to write a couple of sentences or 3000 words, is it a BTEC question or a degree level question, etc? In this case is it about any particular type of court?
d) Thank people for answers- fatim may well do but virtually all homework posters never acknowledge the helpful responses

1. Some do, some don't. Is that a problem? Weigh up the evidence and make a decision. Obviously you will need to do some research before you can weigh up the evidence and make a decision.

Personally, I would argue 'No' in most cases.

2. Possibly. Define 'problematic' and consider the role of the Court. The real question should be 'Does the formality of the Court hinder or facilitate justice'?

Sometimes aye, sometimes naw.

Only 2300 words to go!

Yes.


Hope that helps.
