He's making the face at the third part. The part about the law firm copyrighting the complaint. The part I highlighted in red for you, so it's easier to find.

edit: Nolo beat me to it. And I'm renting 112, since I can't own it.

2.  No signs, tshirts with slogans, logos, or anything indicating what side you support.

3.  Leave all electronics in the car.  If you have a Texas bar card, you can bring in an e-mail device.

4.  You will be searched multiple times.

5.  IMPORTANT: No reacting to oral arguments.  No cheering, laughing, shaking your head, smiling, NOTHING.  No matter what BS is spewed, keep a straight face.  The judge will have you removed, and can have you jailed.

6.  Stand up when the judge comes in and when she leaves.  Stay standing until she sits.

7.  It's better not to pack one side of the courtroom.  Spread out.  If you want to sit behind Nolo in "his" side, it's the one closer to the jury box.

8.  This is not the place to stage an open carry demonstration, or any demonstration.  

9.  The judge can tell who the spectators support most of the time.  If you act like a fool, a basement dweller, or a sovereign citizen, do you want her thinking, "These guys are getting machine guns?"

10.  Let Nolo do his thing.  If you want to talk to him later, do so outside.  Don't swarm his table before or after the arguments.

11.  Parking at the courthouse is an SOB.  

12.  There may not be a transcript available for months.  Court reporters want to get paid for them, and it's frowned upon for a party to post it freely.  That said, take paper notes and share them here afterword.

13.  If the press approaches you, remember that they are not your friend.  Don't talk about all the cool stuff you're going to build.  Best bet is to refer them to Nolo.

14.  The judge has the ability to put you in jail, at any moment, for contempt.  Arrive on time, sit there, listen, and leave.  If she addresses you, in the audience, for something: Stand up, call her "your honor", and apologize for whatever you did wrong.  Don't make excuses.  "I apologize, your honor.  It won't happen again."

I actually do appreciate it.  Have you ever seen the court scene in idiocracy?  Why would I want court to be anything other than a formal occasion?  

There's somethings in this world you better plan on wearing a suit to, and acting right.  Federal court is, and should be one of them.

Good luck to the 2nd Amendment and the brave men representing it tomorrow.

During the Google vs Sun arguments, there were tweets as well as websites posting from the courtroom.  Is that normal and is there any chance of it tomorrow.

Question on #2.  BFL Lapel pin?  First, will it violate your #2... next, will the frigging Feds let me in with a tiny lapel pin that I could possibly stab someone in the jugular with?

I wouldn't.

Yeah, no.   Nothing, and I mean NOTHING that makes you stand out as a 2A person!!!

  What about one of these lapel pins?

I can assure you that lapel pins are not appropriate, and they will accomplish nothing good whatsoever.  I have never seen a lapel pin, novelty tie, funny belt buckle, etc in a federal courtroom, at least worn by anyone that wanted to help their side.

Go read this:  http://baconlawfirm.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/Dress-and-Attire-Guidelines-2014-new-3.pdf

Note that they specifically disallow any clothing that "attempts to display any message relating to any pending case or class of cases".   IMHO, that covers any pin, tie, etc that you think supports Nolo, or would let another arfcomer find you in the crowd.

Anyway, that dress code is the absolute minimum standards, and we should be striving that anyone in that courtroom looks like an attorney ready to make an appearance.

good luck and God speed good sir.

I hope to see this open the floodgates to a repeal of all infringements upon our God given rights and pave the way for an america for our children that was the true vision of our founding fathers.

After seeing the type of people that walk into jury duty I never would have thought that federal would be so restrictive. It's hard to see an American Flag pin being viewed as biased but in this day and age I wouldn't be surprised.




Guess it's better just to play it safe.

1.  Dress like you're going to church (not cowboy church).  Coat, tie, slacks, dress shoes, and socks at a minimum.
2.  No signs, tshirts with slogans, logos, or anything indicating what side you support.
3.  Leave all electronics in the car.  If you have a Texas bar card, you can bring in an e-mail device.
4.  You will be searched multiple times.
5.  IMPORTANT: No reacting to oral arguments.  No cheering, laughing, shaking your head, smiling, NOTHING.  No matter what BS is spewed, keep a straight face.  The judge will have you removed, and can have you jailed.
6.  Stand up when the judge comes in and when she leaves.  Stay standing until she sits.
7.  It's better not to pack one side of the courtroom.  Spread out.  If you want to sit behind Nolo in "his" side, it's the one closer to the jury box.
8.  This is not the place to stage an open carry demonstration, or any demonstration.  
9.  The judge can tell who the spectators support most of the time.  If you act like a fool, a basement dweller, or a sovereign citizen, do you want her thinking, "These guys are getting machine guns?"
10.  Let Nolo do his thing.  If you want to talk to him later, do so outside.  Don't swarm his table before or after the arguments.
11.  Parking at the courthouse is an SOB.  
12.  There may not be a transcript available for months.  Court reporters want to get paid for them, and it's frowned upon for a party to post it freely.  That said, take paper notes and share them here afterword.
13.  If the press approaches you, remember that they are not your friend.  Don't talk about all the cool stuff you're going to build.  Best bet is to refer them to Nolo.
14.  The judge has the ability to put you in jail, at any moment, for contempt.  Arrive on time, sit there, listen, and leave.  If she addresses you, in the audience, for something: Stand up, call her "your honor", and apologize for whatever you did wrong.  Don't make excuses.  "I apologize, your honor.  It won't happen again."

I would hope this applies to people thinking of dressing up as a founding father. We don't need a Ben Franklin look-alike in the court.
