Judge Not Lest Ye Be Judged: Judicial Ethics

Episode 12: Dan, Beth, and Joe continue their journey into what lawyers can and can’t do by exploring the Canons of Judicial Ethics. No, it's not about firing cannons. Yes, it may be slightly drier than diving into the water with orcas or down to the Titanic (or, at least, attempting to...), but a listener requested this topic and, if there's one thing we do best, it's listen to our listeners (or we were contractually bound to cover the topic*). Anyway, Dan explains what judges can and cannot do in their roles on the judiciary. Spoiler alert! It’s nothing and everything! "How can that be?" one might ask? Well, lucky for you, we explain it all while throwing in our thoughts on how much the canons make sense (and how judges can adhere to them) based on our time in practice. We also discuss a local Judge who broke the cardinal rule of remote hearings (yes, it's always recording), whether Dan has a receding hairline (he doesn't), and how old Beth actually looks (hint: not old). Another rousing hour of civil law from the NBH team for your listening pleasure.  *Not actually contractually bound.Check us out at www.nonbillablehourpodcast.com. Intro Track: "Liquid Sky"Music provided by https://Slip.streamFree Download/Stream: https://get.slip.stream/IXedqX Outro Track: "At The End Of It All"Music provided by https://slip.streamDownload / Stream: https://get.slip.stream/brypjx Hosted on Acast.
