Court Tour Persuasive Essay
Dear Ms. Lee,
This is one of the very few field trips that I am really excited about! Lately, I have been thinking about being a lawyer when I grow up. I am not that sure if being a lawyer is something that I really want to do, but this trip will help know a little bit more and will help me experience how it will be like. I think that this would be a great experience for me. I would love to see an actual court case in action. I would be able to see a plaintiff attorney and defendant attorney doing their job in a real trial. I really like to argue and defend by end of the case that’s why I think being a lawyer is something that I want to be!
During this experience I will be able to learn many different things that I can’t really learn in class. For example, I can see how a real-life trial will be like. I an also learn the way the lawyers talk, act, and defend their side. I also will be able to learn how a real judge deals with court cases. I will also be able to learn all the problems (if any) in a court trial that I can’t really learn in school. In school we talked about criminal and civil cases. In a real trial I can learn different examples of criminal and civil (mostly civil case) cases. I also would love to see how the lawyers defend an attack and attack the other side. We also probably be able to learn how lawyers present the evidence against the opposing side. Lastly, I will be able to learn how a judge stops a lawyer-to-lawyer dispute/argument.
I think that I should go on this field trip because I am a straight A student. I always do my homework and get good grades ever quarter. I am also a very well behaved student in class and in previous field trips. I will not disturb or talk during the trial. As you already know, I am naturally a quiet person! I really, really hope that you will pick me to go on the field trip! I am already very, very excited about this trip!!!! Chose wisely! 

Sincerely, S

    The law and its ever-changing characteristics intrigued me at a very early age. Growing up, I wanted to be a lawyer. My goal of becoming a lawyer was a bit impractical due to my procrastination after high school graduation and because of my past financial situation. Not knowing what to do then, led me to join the Navy. The Navy afforded me the opportunity to go to school while working and it also allowed me to change jobs so that I can choose something closely related to my goal of becoming an attorney. That’s when I became a Paralegal, or “Legalman” as the Navy calls it.…

    This summer I had the privilege of job shadowing a great lawyer and family friend, Nancy Bonilla. I have nearly always wanted to be a lawyer, and in all honesty I was a little concerned that after watching a real court hearing, and seeing all the work that lawyers actually have to put into each and every case, I would no longer wish to become a lawyer. However my fears were removed entirely as soon as I walked into her downtown Fort Worth office; the day I had arranged to job shadow Mrs. Bonilla, she had a court hearing in Denton, so immediately upon my arrival I was exposed to the last minute stress of getting the clients case in order. I was able to help Mrs. Bonilla with getting her paper work…

Subsequently in the movie, jury duty was indicated when the election officials tracked him down and arrived at his house to notify him he has ten days to vote.

    Virginia Persuasive Essay

    We, the delegates of Virginia believe and agree that the number of members of Congress should be proportional to population. We believe this because it is most beneficial for the population to be proportional because a huge state like Virginia should not have the same number of representatives of congress as a smaller state like Delaware or Georgia. The reason why we have such a large population is because we have such a large slave population. Slaves are the people who work in our fields and this act boosts our economy, bringing more people to our state. If the representation was distributed equally among states, then smaller states like Delaware, would have the same number of representatives as a huge state like us. That would not allow a…

    I was overwhelmed with excitement, as I was about to witness my first small claims trial in the reputable small claims court located at 7765 Hurontario Street, Brampton, which was repetitively used as a source in the small claims textbook. To my surprise there were two buildings, the large one being the criminal court while the smaller one was the small claims court. These seem to be the main cause of confusion for many people including myself. This is because the address for small claims on our books was actually for the criminal courts instead. I failed to understand why they could not create a way to distinguish them. When I finally arrived at the small claims court, I was enthusiastic to see the endless amount of people…

    Our separate individual identities are shaped by our interpretations of our society’s ideals and values. As individuals, we reflect in our personalities and actions by what we hear and see in the media, and through what we have observed personally in the world in general. Having an experience of our society’s rules, we are able to make informed decisions and choices by the ethical and moral concerns that we are bound by. Despite this, when moving from one country to another, we may be confronted by a different system with distinct and perhaps seemingly unusual sets of principles. If this is indeed the case, this would be reflected by the different people in the country as a whole compared to our own. In order for…

    I just found out that I have jury duty Monday at 8:15am. Previously, I talked to a representative and rescheduled my time, however was told yesterday that there was no indication of that in their system. In spite of that, I still tried to reschedule yesterday, but they would not allow me to do so. Apparently, they are really enforcing attendance due to people not showing up. I have the summons document with me if you need it.…

    “Look up in the sky, it a bird, it a plane,” no it’s a drone delivering your Summons for Jury Duty. No, relax, Jury Summons are not being delivered by drones yet. However, just imagine the reaction of people if they were. Their first response would probably be to find an excuse to get out of it. But little do they know, our future depends on good and honest people providing service by making an informed decision. Serving as a juror is extremely important. For example, it is our civic duty, it gives the defendant a fair trial, it provides knowledge on how the court system operates, and it is one of the few constitutional obligations.…

    Online, physically, or verbally you can be a victim of being bullied. You don’t have to keep things as they are. The question is how to handle the situation (Do you attack the bully and become the bully yourself? Or do you ignore the bully and pretend all is well?) What you do is speak up and ask for help. I would know, because not only was I a victim, I was also a person who stood by and simply watched it happen.…

    I agree with you, Ricardo, but there are so many consequences of taking the plea. You are still an innocent person and agreeing for a crime you never commit is unfair. Whatever happened to Kelly is unfair and taking the plea is going against her dignity and what she believes in. I wouldn't take the plea either, even that means 30 years in prison. She was young when was arrested and that means she wouldn't able to apply for financial aid for further study or get a…
