Aaron: A prominent judge, criticizing "famous lawyers who come before courts ill-prepared to argue their cases, " recently said, "This sort of cavalier attitude offends the court and can do nothing but harm to the client' s cause. " I find the judge' s remarks irresponsible. Belinda: I find it natural and an admirable display of candor. Letting people know of the damage their negligence causes is responsible behavior. The point at issue between Aaron and Belinda is whether ['it is to be expected that ill-prepared lawyers would offend the court in which they appear', 'famous lawyers have a greater responsibility to be well prepared than do lawyers who are not famous', "the judge's criticism of lawyers is irresponsible", "ill-prepared lawyers damage their clients' causes"]
