You’re saying that’s what a fair trial is like?

Maybe I don’t recognize a level field when I see one?

Entirely possible.

It’s an interesting experience; it sure beats the usual uphill slog the defense faces in jury trials in the Harris County courthouse."? Sounds like, all in all, this experience means you got a fair trial. Maybe the Terrain was unmapped and tilted both ways because the Judge actually followed the fules of not knowing the facts of the case beforehand and made his or her rulings as the case unfolded for the first time? Sure is hard to out and out compliment a Judge in H.C. Tx. isn't it? Re: ” Since getting the jury picked, the judge has made some unexpected rulings for us and some for the government.
