What do judges do?
Judges interpret laws and issue orders for the enforcement of laws. In criminal courts, judges watch over trials to make sure that the lawyers follow the rules, and in many cases, judges decide how long somoeone goes to jail. Judges also make orders to force poicemen to behave properly and follow rules. If the policeman does not follow the rules, a judge might decide to let the accused criminal go free. In civil courts judges also watch trials and make sure that they lawyers follow the rules. Judges also sometimes decide who is right. They do this when the people who are suing each other agree that they do not want a jury to decide. Judges can also throw out bad cases like when somone sues someone else for a stupid reason.
