How To Behave In Court

Paul Bergman (Professor, UCLA School of Law) gives expert video advice on: How should I behave in court?

How should I behave in court?

One's behavior should show respect for the institution of justice. You may get angry if you stay in there. You may think everything the witness is saying is a lie, but you cannot yell, and you cannot interrupt the proceedings. Trials unfold orderly. You will have a chance to explain yourself when it is your chance to testify. You cannot interrupt witnesses. You cannot interrupt the judge. You cannot interrupt lawyers. You should behave with respect.
