The students from the book Her Honor, Katie Shannon by Betsy

The students from the book Her Honor, Katie Shannon by Betsy Haynes complain about the school rules and sometimes break them. The principle (директор школы) sends them to Teen Court.
Make sure you know
+ who is who in Teen Court,
+ what they do in Teen Court.
quot;All right, everyone. In about fifteen minutes we should have our first case, but lets talk about how were going to run our court,quot; Mrs Brenner said. quot;This is how its going to work. Anyone who has had a complaint filed (подано) against him or her by a teacher or administrator will come in with the person who filed (подал) the complaint. The person whom the complaint is against will be the defendant, and the person who filed the complaint is called the plaintiff. Both will tell us their story. You should take notes and ask any questions you feel you need to in order to understand the problem thoroughly. We will discuss the rule that has been broken and how justice can be fairly applied. Being a judge is not easy. Now, we need to appoint a senior judge to control the proceedings.quot;
