Thanks CB and you Chad.  The recognition that our state judiciary has earned and received is well deserved.  It has a good small claims court system that really empowers the "little guy".  The language outreach programs and the accessibility to the courts are outstanding.  The average citizen is afraid of the court system.  They think it is in place to punish them and most of that is for traffic violations.  In truth, the courts are your friend and a steady equal platform for all citizens to resolve conflicts that may arise.  I have always trusted the Court in our State.   Now attorney's are another thing, I find them to be a necessary nuisance that are very expensive.  Fortunately, in small matter a person may represent himself. The court is very open to self representation when the court user is capable and qualified.  And like Choon James...I also agree.
