Courtroom Etiquette
Court is a very traditional place. When you are representing yourself in court, you are trying to persuade a judge or jury that you are right. So you must act, dress, and speak in a way that helps you with your case. Review the following etiquette:
- Be on time. Get to the court 15 minutes early in order to check in.
- Camera phones are not allowed in the courtroom so leave them secured in your car or at home.
- How you act is as important as how you look. You must be respectful to everyone in the court, including the judge, court staff, and any other parties involved in your case.
- Sit up straight and be attentive. Do not speak while others are talking. All proceedings are being recorded so speak clearly and keep small children quiet.
- Speak to the judge only when you are told it’s your turn. Address the judge as “Your Honor”.
- Cell phones must be turned off while in the courtroom and not just put on vibrate. Any violation of the phone or device rule could result in your phone or device being taken away from you.
- For those with small children, try your best to find child care while you are in court. If you cannot find someone to care for your children, do not let that stop you from coming to court. If your child becomes too noisy in the courtroom, you may be asked to wait in the lobby until you are called to the bench. Once again, all courtroom proceedings are be recorded so children must be quiet.
- Food and drinks are not allowed in the courtroom.
