ALL SEMBLANCE of decorum was thrown to the winds in the
two criminal Municipal Courts today when a couple of deputy prosecutors forgot to look at the calendar. The prosecutors were George C. House, in Court 4, and Louis Adams, in Court 3. The same set of circumstances occurred in both courts. The prosecutors were calling off the names of defendants listed on affidavits. “Ima Full! Ima Full!” shouted Mr. Adams in Court 3 and Mr. House in Court 4. When “Ima didn’t respond and the courtroom rocked with laughter, the judges took a hand. “Are you pleading guilty?” Judge Pro Tem Taylor Groninger asked Mr. Adams. To Mr. House, Judge.
