What did I do the third day?


Unlike my mistake on Day 1, I did not stop by Fort Worth before arriving to the courthouse.  I was early and prepared to get to work.
The day started business as usual. Running around meeting with clients, attorneys, and judges. Like day one, Mr. Warren spent a lot of time filling out slips called PSI’s.  Too nervous to ask questions on Day 1, I finally found out what they were.
PSIs or Pre-Sentence Investigation Report is report that describes the background and character of the person being sentenced. PSIs are important because judges use the PSIs for aid in determining the sentence.
After a long morning at the Dallas courthouse, Warren and I took our talents to the courthouse in Rowlett. Warren had a hearing and the experience was exciting because I learned that in this field of work, one can be asked to serve anywhere instead of being stuck in a one city.
After a quick lunch, Warren and I returned to the office. There I was able to watch a consultation and gain knowledge of how to legally approach situations.
The rest of the day was spent filing and hearing more about cases. Today was a great day, but I am sad that tomorrow will be my last day.
