Traditionally the judge would carry The Bible in with him and all would rise for the "Law" entering the room. Now days the judges like to think it is for their position; but technically judges are public servants and don't demand that respect. Now it is just tradition from a time passed.

People are supposed to stand when any judge enters any courtroom; it is customary, and a sign of respect for the law as represented by the judge.

Should you rise in the court when its called out what happens if you don't?

It is customary to rise when the judge enters or departs the courtroom and when the jury enters and departs the court room. If you don't you may get a lecture from the judge and a cool place to sit for a while while you ponder the advisability of standing when directed. As a defendant, why would you even want to annoy the judge or jury who is going to decide your fate?

Why do you have to bow when entering a court room?

It has long been traditional for counsel to bow to the judge when they enter the courtroom while court is in session and upon the judge entering the courtroom. The bow is not an exchange of courtesies between two duelists about to fight. The bow is a sign of respect. Counsel bow to the judge, not as a sign of respect to the person, but as a sign of respect to the judicial office.
