"First off," Alex said. "Closing arguments. Only one of you went last week, so that means the rest of you should be prepared for today."

She set down a mug of hot tea and gave a somewhat sheepish look at her students. "Your final is ... less detailed than I'd intended. I'm afraid I've spent most of my free time this week dealing with some personal legal concerns. Be as brief or as exhaustive as you'd like, in your responses."

"And if anyone wants extra credit, then please research the ways in which one can obtain an annulment from the commonwealth of Virginia."

... No reason.

The judge is called the Honorable So-and-so. One can refer to them as Judge So-and-so, but never as Hon. That's an endearment and is inappropriate for the court room.

What? The lesson had stuck!
