Courtroom Behavior Rules explores the often-overlooked yet critical standards governing conduct within criminal trials. It reveals how these rules, developed over centuries from English common law, are essential for upholding justice and due process. The book examines the specific behaviors expected of defendants, attorneys, jurors, and judges, highlighting how deviations can lead to mistrials, appeals, and overturned convictions. For instance, jurors are strictly prohibited from conducting outside research, and defendants face restrictions on courtroom outbursts.

The book progresses systematically, first introducing the roles and responsibilities of each courtroom participant. It then delves into the specific rules governing defendant behavior, attorney conduct, juror responsibilities, and judicial obligations. Using legal statutes, case law, and expert opinions, it illustrates how breaches of courtroom decorum compromise the integrity of trials.

By focusing on the practical realities of courtroom procedure and avoiding complex jargon, Courtroom Behavior Rules offers valuable insights for anyone interested in understanding the American legal system.
