On the 23rd of February 2004, I went to Fulton Country North Court. The place was hard to find because there was no large sign that was easy to see; However, I managed to find it at around 8.10 am. As I entered the building, I had no problem finding the courtroom because the courtroom number was shown at the entrance of the building and there were signs to guide me to the courtroom. I have observed that there are two types of court: traffic court and magistrate court. I managed o watch several court cases. The traffic court case that I paid close attention to was Wibawa case, where he was caught by police driving without a license and an expired car tag. Then I moved on to the magistrate court case, where there was Fresh Solution v Computer Digital Service, Pearlman v Betty, Juhen v Cingular, Peter v Robert Salomon and Jones v Ford car dealer case.
             I arrived at the traffic court and I was unimpressed with the delay of the court because according to the schedule the court was supposed to start at 8 am but it was delayed for about 30 min. I was thinking that there were many cases that the judge have to hear and time is very limited to finish all the cases. As I entered the room, the room was so quiet; it sounded like no one was there. I looked at the people around me; they felt so tense waiting for decisions on their cases. The traffic judge on that day was Victoria Moran. At 8.30 am the judge entered the room and she started giving general information about traffic court to people. Wibawa was the first person that the judge called on that day. Wibawa was using a lawyer in his case. I assumed that it was a big case because no one normally will use a lawyer for a speeding ticket. The judge turned the case over to the prosecutor. His case was that he was caught driving without a license and an expired tag. The plea bargain for this case is two days in jail, $600 fine and 6 months of probation. His lawyer defended him
