Serenity, what did she tell the judge?
Sooner or later people who think they are smarter than everybody else get tripped up. Too smart for her own good comes to mind.
I am so happy that this happened. What lie did she tell the judge?
Is this the same judge? Will this judge be the presiding judge in subsequent matters?
I remember when my sister wanted to change jobs around 10 years ago. She hated where she taught and they could not much stand her either. She decided she should be a judge.
Her sense of herself is so noble, so just, so seer of all things correctly and superior. So tied in with her own rationality and knowing. Power-seeking. I guess there were no takers. She had not done one thing, really, that would have prepared her for this kind of responsibility. Yet she felt entitled and deserving. As if, I can envision it for myself. It is mine. It is me. Grandiosity.
At the time, I was horrified. The idea that my sister's narcissistic elements be reinforced by that kind of power-over chilled me, and still does as I type this.
Imagine your sister as a judge. Or worse yet, Bart's ex. That is even closer. I do not know why thinking about my sister as a judge still has this reaction. A visceral reaction in my gut.
I guess because of all of the times she would look down from on high and believe she had the right to decide my fate. And would try.

Such good news at a time you needed it most!
