Teen curses out judge - is sent to jail for 30 days and bail is doubled

Thoughts? Honestly it was a dick move. Sure she was being a bit of an ass, but that doesn't warrant bail being doubled because that judge doesn't particularly like her.

  • Regardless of your views on it, you should show respect to the man (or woman) who happens to be in charge of your sentence.

  • This is over a week old. She apologized and now she doesn't have to serve time.

  • Cursing in a courtroom? What an uneducated thing.

  • For those who are of the "judge is being a dick" state of mind: [quote]Contempt of court is essentially seen as a form of disturbance that may impede the functionality of the court. The judge may impose fines and/or jail time upon any person committing contempt of court. The person is usually let out upon his agreement to fulfill the wishes of the court.[1] Civil contempt can involve acts of omission. The judge will make use of warnings in most situations that may lead to a person being charged with contempt. It is relatively rare that a person is charged for contempt without first receiving at least one warning from the judge.[2] Constructive contempt, also called consequential contempt is when a person fails to fulfill the will of the court as it applies to outside obligations of the person. In most cases, constructive contempt is considered to be in the realm of civil contempt because of its passive nature. Indirect contempt is something that is associated with civil and constructive contempt and involves a failure to follow court orders. Criminal contempt includes anything that could be called a disturbance such as repeatedly talking out of turn, bringing forth previously banned evidence, or harassment of any other party in the courtroom.[3] Direct contempt is an unacceptable act in the presence of the judge (in facie curiae), and generally begins with a warning, and may be accompanied by an immediate imposition of punishment. Yawning in some cases can be considered contempt of court[/quote] [url=http://www.bungie.net]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contempt_of_court[/url]

      Judge is a total dickwad. Criminal contempt is an act of disrespect that [b]impedes[/b] the administration of justice. How does cursing out that fat wannabe Santa impede justice?

      • I didn't think a judge was the one who could change the amount for the bonds. I know he can hold her for contempt but do judges have the power to raise bonds?

        On one hand, that's what she deserves for being so disrespectful. On the other hand, maybe her outburst-or at least a decent portion of it- was somewhat justified.
