Virtually all American judges are former lawyers. This book argues that these lawyer-judges instinctively favor the legal profession in their decisions and that this bias has far-reaching and deleterious effects on American law. There are many reasons for this bias, some obvious and some subtle. Fundamentally, it occurs because - regardless of political affiliation, race, or gender - every American judge shares a single characteristic: a career as a lawyer. This shared background results in the lawyer-judge bias. The book begins with a theoretical explanation of why judges naturally favor the interests of the legal profession and follows with case law examples from diverse areas, including legal ethics, criminal procedure, constitutional law, torts, evidence, and the business of law. The book closes with a case study of the Enron fiasco, an argument that the lawyer-judge bias has contributed to the overweening complexity of American law, and suggests some possible solutions.

A searing exposé and report card on the condition of our American court system a half century after a national corporate take-over by judges. This wide-ranging sociological, religious, and legal study by an experienced law writer looks at the history and politics behind the new and secret American court agenda where judges function under hidden power to declare what is ultimate law. A dangerous development using usurped power from the other branches of government, this seismic change in national institutional character has a profound impact on the delivery of justice by insider professionals. How courts launder internal abuse and corruption, using systemic discrimination (especially against pro se and poor-er classes,) is an eye-opening, shocking encounter about the soft underbelly of our modern American legal system. As former lawyers and founder of the Ex-Wives of Judges Club, the author explains the hidden nuances and cronyism so rampant in almost every American court. She explains (using true case details with legal citations,) hundreds of common crony bench tricks used to avoid the Rule of Law to provide either favorable or punitive case outcomes. This book is a long overdue analytical commentary and look at the hidden motivators for judges to misuse authority, abandon ethics, and influence outcomes. Taught as the textbook for an online class, it is also a call for reform, and a scholarly argument about the challenge of personal ethics and the higher role of God and traditional morality in courts. The author writes, "it is not my goal to write for the ruling class, but for the 99.997% of the 322,267,564 Americans who are NOT judges or lawyers. Entertaining, factual, sobering, it is a comprehensive reliable course in Dark Law 101.

Excerpt from Half a Century With Judges and Lawyers I am handicapped very much in this: that, as I have said, the reader is not acquainted with the actual appearance of the persons re ferred to, their dress, their tones of voice, their tout ensemble, so to speak; and hence many sayings and doings will seem stale, flat, and unprofitable, and the point may be lost.

Jurists and Judges examines the nature of academic influence,and particularly the influence of juristic commentary on judicial decision-making. Focusing on three legal systems, its author argues that inter-jurisdictional comparisons of juristic influence are often simplistic and inattentive to problems of incommensurability. The centrepiece of the study is a detailed chapter offering a nuanced history of juristic influence in England. All academic lawyers who reflect upon the history and objectives of their profession - who, in other words, wonder what it is that they are about - will profit from reading this most informative and engaging book.
