LAWYER’S COMPLAINT
“NO COURTESY IN COURT” CONVENIENCE OF OTHERS TO BE STUDIED j “I don’t know whether I am the victim of circumstances. but I seem never to get any courtesy in this Court," remarked Mr. J. JSullivan to Mr. W. R. McKean. S.M., when a client’s case was called this morning. Mr. Sullivan had cases in the upstairs court and was called immediately j front upstairs to a case that had been j waiting downstairs. So he complained warmly to Mr. McKean, i “You seem to expect the whole court • to await your convenience.” retorted the magistrate placidly. Mr. Sullivan wanted to know why his client’s case could not have been heard later. Doesn’t the court ever sit in the afternoon.” he argued. Yes —very often,” said Mr. McKean, ‘but we had to study the convenience of the witnesses and the police. Anyhow. we’d better go on now.”
