First Judicial Act

Maybe one day I’ll be a full-fledged judge, maybe not.  But nothing will ever change the fact that my first act as a judicial officer was to sign a warrant for some guy’s arrest.  At a judgment debtor examination, the debtor didn’t show up, so I signed in the folder and said in open court that I was approving the bench warrant.
