Judges without judgment ....

So you go to court because you and the other party just can't come to an agreement. You think you are going to go before an unbiased individual to help the two of you come to an amicable (or somewhat anyway) conclusion to your issues. Yeah .... ummmmmm this is not always the case. Some judges are completely biased, and abandoned common sense like a poor pathetic step child.

It amazes me how the bias of an individual can get in the way of seeing the facts ... afterall the facts are the facts right? Apparently, not always. Take for example, a contract. This is a pretty simple concept ... two parties put in writing what they agree to, if one party doesn't do what is in the contract then they are in "breach" of that contract. Now common sense says that if you then go to court in this matter it would be pretty simple, that the person in breach would be ruled against, consequences laid out, and retribution to the injured party. That is what common sense says. That is actually what the law says. HOWEVER, this is not necessarily what the judge will say .... Why you ask ... well because ...the judge has lost all grasps of reality and the concept of common sense has been thrown out like yesterday's bath water.

Judges become biased to a side along the way. They don't like your hair color, eye color, shirt color, your lawyer, etc. Even the reason for the bias doesn't have to make sense. Logic has vanished never to be seen from again! Just know ... it happens, and it isn't good for either party. Why? Because the wronged party will appeal, costing both parties more time, effort, stress and valuable resources.

Trust me it is all quite sad and tragic ... there will however be a memorial service for the loss of common sense and logic. Please make donations to the "Judge Sense Rehabilition Fund" in lieu of flowers.
