[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] While I can't offer too much wisdom on surviving my own cases, I can offer some reassurance from the perspective of someone who spent a lot of time on the other side of the bench. The judges and clerks (and attorneys) have seen it all. You'll be fine!! Good luck, OP. Relax. [/quote] +1. The judges really have seen it all. During my clerkship I saw seasoned litigators who you'd never think would be nervous, but if they held paper, you could see it shaking. Another wardrobe story, once when we were listening to the courtroom proceedings from the back, before the judge went into the courtroom, we could hear lots of chatter among the attorneys about placekickers. When my co-clerk came back into chambers at a break, it was clear what they were talking about. He was wearing one brown shoe and one black shoe, same style. [/quote]
