Judges need a trade school
Article Abstract:
Continuing education and practical training programs for new judges are a growing need. More training is necessary because attorneys are seated on the bench with less experience. New judges must strip themselves of legal skills, such as examining witnesses, which are unsuitable to judging. Useful practical skills for judges include evaluating attorney and witness credibility, recognizing and eliminating judicial bias as much as possible and getting along with fellow court employees.
