Nemeth Aquinas in the Courtroom : Lawyers, Judges, and Judicial Conduct Cet.1 Westport Princeton University Press 2001 xi, 216p.; 26 cm 26 cm Indeks : p.213-216 p.201-212 The fundamental of this book is to be a forum for these insights so that lawyers and judges of every ilk and persuasion will have no excuse for ignorance. Aside from this, Thomistic jurisprudence is the well spring for renewal in a beleaguered justice system whose primary players, lawyers and judges, are in dramatic need of something over and above the status quo. The current state of affairs can no longer be tolerated. Greedy lawyers, corrupt judges, and advocacy tactics that care litle for truth or justice promise a bleak future for these professions. The rest of us, especially members of the Bar, admitting our own inadequacies and frailties, cannot sit idly by. Our system is in a squalid state of affairs, and protestations about lawyer jokes from American Bar Association or other petty umbrage do not cure a hobbled system that has lost its way. This study serve as a starting point for renewal and reexamination of the lawyer and the judge. Being Thomistic assuredly will elevate and improve the legal marketplace, and maybe, prompt the type of questions that legal professionals have long avoided. Thomas Aquinas Saint 1225-1274 Natural Law
