Vitanuova for 2002 April 4 (entry 0)

From the Anarchist Book Fair to a Federal courtroom in two days -- what a contrast! I went down to San Jose on Monday morning to see a pre-trial hearing in United States v. Elcomsoft.

It was my first time in Federal court. (I've been in a state court before.) One lawyer said: "If you're ever bored, go down to the nearest Federal court and sit in the gallery. There's always something going on."

So, actually, there's a sort of a chain connecting these days one to another:

Saturday: I buy three books at a book fair. Sunday: I buy three books at a flea market, including Der Prozeß Monday: I see a criminal trial.

Aside from the Elcomsoft argument, there was a guilty plea in an immigration case. I'd like to write more about that at some point.
