How to Argue with Judges ...

In this interesting post from Dr. Frederick D. Graves, he brings up the point that Judges do not have absolute authority and can be argued with. Just cussing him out won’t advance your case and can get you thrown out – just like at a baseball game. Of course, the more you know your own rights in the courtroom is exactly how easily you can win your own case – whether you argue it yourself or simply keep track of that lawyer you hired and make sure he does.

Arguing with judges is like arguing with baseball umpires.

You better know the rules AND HOW TO USE THEM!

Did you know every major league baseball park has its own "Ground Rules", and there are "Universal Ground Rules" that apply to all major league parks?

Here are a few rules from the Official MLB Rulebook:Win with Jurisdictionary!

  • A player is not permitted to step or go into a dugout to make a catch.
  • A player is permitted to reach into a dugout to make a catch.
  • If a player makes a catch outside the dugout and his momentum carries him into the dugout, the catch is allowed as long as the player does not fall in the dugout.

Seems simple enough, doesn't it?

But, what if the players or the coach don't know the rules? What happens then? Will it do any good at all to argue with the umpire?

Probably not!

And all the %#$@&* will only get you thrown out of the park and possibly grounded for the season!

To argue successfully with a baseball umpire or a judge in a lawsuit, you must know how to use the rules!

Knowing the rules is not enough.

You must know how to use the rules!

It's the bottom of the ninth. Two down. Batter at the plate. The count is three and two. The batter pops a high foul. You push back your catcher's mask and dash toward the dugout to make the catch. The ball hits your glove and at that precise instant you trip on the rim of the dugout and fall in. You scramble to your feet, climb out of the dugout, ball in your upraised hand and triumphant grin on your face. Teammates cheer. Fans roar fanatic approval from the stands.

But, the scornful look on the umpire's face and his raspy voice quickly erase your victorious joy.

"Foul Ball!"

Not an out?

"But, I caught the ball, ump!"

The player strides purposely toward the umpire, waving a fist, yelling obscenities, and spitting (of course).

Fast behind is the coach, marching menacingly toward the umpire, cap shoved back, both fists in the air, also shouting nastiest and accusing the umpire of needing a new pair of glasses.

The umpire stands firmly behind the plate, hands planted on his hips, and waits for the verbal onslaught.

"I caught the foul ball. It's an out!"

"It's a foul ball. Period!" the umpire insists.

"You must be blind, Ump! It's an out! Game's over. We win! Didn't you see me catch the ball? Jeeter couldn't do any better!"

"Maybe not," the umpire insists, "but Jeeter knows the ground rules! You fell in the dugout. Catch doesn't count. Get back behind the plate where you belong!"

"But. But. But."

If you studied my affordable 24-hour Jurisdictionary lawsuit self-help course, you know "But" doesn't count!

Claiming you're pro se and should therefore be allowed to play by different rules doesn't count!

Either know how to use the rules or lose!

Sending emails to your friends after you lose or posting hateful comments on the internet complaining our courts are "all corrupt" just marks you as a loser.

Learn how to use the official rules ... or lose.

It might be the "play of the season" to you. You might show up with all kinds of documents and things you think are "admissible evidence". You might know the law of the case is on your side.

But!

If you don't know how to use the rules of evidence and the rules of procedure to argue effectively with the judge ... you lose!

Many judges and lawyers don't know the rules! This works to your advantage if you've studied my course!

There will be times when you'll need to argue with the judge about this or that, but please believe what I learned these past 24 years since I started practicing law as a licensed attorney, unless you know the rules and how to argue the rules effectively, you have no more chance of changing a judge's ruling than the catcher who snagged a foul ball in mid-air while falling into the dugout!

The Rules RULE!

End of story!

Only fools believe otherwise!

Winners know how to use the rules effectively!

That is the American Way!

That's what makes us all equal ... because the rules of court don't favor either team. The rules are fair to all.

I should add that the rules do favor the good guy, the side that should win.

But, if you don't know the rules and how to argue them effectively with a judge, you have no chance of winning in a contest where the other side knows the rules better than you do. The judge isn't supposed to help you, any more than an umpire should favor either baseball team.

Those who learn how to use the rules by studying my affordable 24-hour Jurisdictionary self-help course are winning.

We are a nation of rules.

Winners know how to use the rules tactically!

Losers believe internet fables. Losers get their legal education at the barbershop or on websites or expensive weekend seminars run by people who never practiced law, never went to law school, and don't know mud from sand about the rules or how to use them to persuade judges.

Too many good folks believe mythological silver-bullet easy solutions to their legal problems and, as a result, are losing when they should be winning!

A host of wannabe legal gurus are infesting the internet and barbershops with half-baked schemes that sound too good to be true ... and, like the old adage says, "If it sounds to good to be true, it probably isn't true."

You've probably heard people promoting ideas that you can win by challenging a judge's oath of office, claiming a UCC lien in the lender's collateral, insisting banks don't loan "real money", or trying to be "above the law" because you denied your citizenship or claim you're a "sovereign human being".

Sounds like an easy way to win ... and it might work in small claims or traffic court ... but it will not carry the day in any kind of serious lawsuit or criminal case.

Hope in one hand and spit in the other. See which hand gets wet.

Please use your common sense.

Learn how to use the rules to control judges!

Teach others!

You are NOT above the law. Challenging a judge's oath is not going to win your lawsuit. You cannot defeat a collateral lien of a lender by claiming a lien in your own property! And, if you think you can win by arguing banks don't loan "real money", you may end up defending yourself in sanity proceedings seeking to have you committed to an asylum.

Yes! There are people who hold dearly to these myths. They argue forcefully for their ridiculous theories, but like the daring catcher diving into the dugout to catch the foul ball and win the game for his team in the bottom of the ninth, the rules are going to decide who wins ... not legal mythology or silver-bullet methods invented by self-styled lawyer wannabes.

Remember: The most dangerous falsehoods are the ones we most want to believe!

It's EASY to use the rules to control judges!

Why not learn how?

It's not expensive, and people who have my course tell us an 8th grader can learn it all in a single weekend.

Or, you can persist in listening to the nut cases on the internet with their ridiculous theories ... and lose!

It makes more sense to force judges to do what's right!

If you have a lawyer, you will save thousands in legal fees by knowing what the lawyer should be doing ... and you will maximize your chances for success by making certain the lawyer does what should be done, instead of taking you for a ride to the poorhouse - as happens to so very many good people these days.

If you don't have a lawyer, you'll know how to stop the opponent's crooked tricks and get the judge on your side!

The key to winning is knowing how to use the rules!

Silver-bullet methods offered by wannabe legal gurus will only get you deeper into trouble!

Why not learn how to use the rules for yourself?

  • The Rules of Evidence
  • The Rules of Procedure

That's all there is to it.

The rules of court are actually simpler than the official rules of major league baseball ... believe it or not! Major league baseball rules take up about 125 pages, while the most important rules of court are less than 50!
