A courtroom is the actual enclosed space in which a judge regularly holds court.
The schedule of official court proceedings is called a docket; the term is also synonymous with a court's caseload as a whole.
The judge generally sits behind a raised desk, known as the bench. Benches in U.S. federal courtrooms and some state courtrooms are usually bullet-resistant to protect judges from courtroom shootouts. Behind the judge are the great seal of the jurisdiction and the flags of the appropriate federal and state governments. Judges usually wear a plain black robe (a requirement in many jurisdictions). An exception was the late U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice William Rehnquist, who broke tradition by adorning his robe with four gold stripes on each sleeve.
Adjacent to the bench are the witness stand and the desks where the court clerk and the court reporter sit. The courtroom is divided into two parts by a barrier known as the bar. The bar may be an actual railing, or an imaginary barrier. The bailiff stands (or sits) against one wall and keeps order in the courtroom.

Plot: Alleged is a romantic drama based on events occurring behind the scenes and outside the courtroom of the famous Scopes "Monkey Trial" of 1925. Charles Anderson, a talented young reporter, feels trapped working for his deceased father's weekly newspaper and living in a tiny town (Dayton, TN) in steep decline. Seeing the "Monkey Trial" as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to break into the journalistic big leagues, Charles manages to insert himself into the middle of the "Trial of the Century." Once in the midst of this staged event, however, he is torn between his love for the more principled Rose, his fiancée, and the escalating moral compromises that he is asked to make as the eager protégé of H.L. Mencken, America's most colorful and influential columnist.

Plot: In the wake of Abraham Lincoln's assassination, seven men and one woman are arrested and charged with conspiring to kill the President, the Vice-President, and the Secretary of State. The lone woman charged, Mary Surratt, 42, owns a boarding house where John Wilkes Booth and others met and planned the simultaneous attacks. Against the ominous back-drop of post-Civil War Washington, newly-minted lawyer, Frederick Aiken, a 28-year-old Union war-hero, reluctantly agrees to defend Surratt before a military tribunal. As the trial unfolds, Aiken realizes his client may be innocent and that she is being used as bait and hostage in order to capture the only conspirator to have escaped a massive manhunt, her own son.

To seek eternal favor
Would you face Jesus Christ as judge
Or would you face Him as your Saviour?
There are many who don't quite know for sure
What that verdict would be if ever
So let's imagine for a moment you're standing dead center
In the courtroom of forever
Sitting before you is a structure
Massive and intense
It's here your fate will be determined
Before this Judge's bench
Then a voice booms, "This court's now in session."
And your adrenaline starts to rush
Peering down with eyes that see through your soul
Is God the Father; your Judge
Then off to your left, across the room
Is the virtual silhouette of sin
Stepping out of the shadows of condemnation
Your worst nightmare walks in
On his face is the smirk of evil incarnate
His mind fixed on your destruction in hell
You've just been introduced to your prosecuting attorney
None other than Satan himself
The Bible says he's the accuser of the brethren
So guess what he's gonna do
He's gonna accuse you of your sins
And he knows them all
Both the old ones and the new
He's prepared his case for years
Now the golden moment is his
So in arrogance he presents his case to the Judge
And it comes out sounding something like this
"God, you see this worthless piece of trash over here?
This one is a sinner to the core
This one has committed adultery, cursed his neighbor, stolen money
Been into drugs, alcohol and even more
This hopeless wretch has even slandered friends
And by that guilty face this whole courtroom can tell
That to a moral certainly and beyond and reasonable doubt
This one deserves eternal judgment in hell"
The words of accusation still echo
Your every sin thrown up in your face
Then God opens the book where ever deed is recorded
And reviews your records of disgrace
God says, "The book says you did this, this and this
And everything you were accused of today
Now, before I sentence you to hell forever
Are there any last words you have to say?"
Now, if it's true you're standing there in the courtroom of eternity
With God to your front and Satan the prosecutor to your left
There's on remaining eternal truth, on that's crucial to remember
On you should never, ever, ever forget
That on the other side of the courtroom
I said, on the other side of the courtroom
You ain't hearing me tonight
I said, on the other side of the courtroom
Is the one and only Son of God
Revealed in time and space
And He's your defense attorney
Who has never lost a case
It's not Buddha, Mohammed or Krishna
Or any other who succumb to death
Ladies and gentlemen on the other side of the courtroom
Is Jesus Christ of Nazareth
Then Jesus jumps up, says, "What a minute, Judge
Now I've got something to say
May I remind you that on a cross 2,000 years ago
I washed his sins away
I was crucified, I died, they put Me in a tomb
But long about the midnight hour
The power of God hit Me and I walked out of that grave
Alive and well with resurrection power"
The devil said, "It's in the book, it's written in the book
Check the book," and God said, "OK"
Then He takes the book out, lays it open and says
"Now we'll see what this book has to say"
He turns to the first page, the second page, the third
By the fourth, the devil seemed shook
God closes it and says, "The blood of Jesus must have worked
'Cause there is absolutely nothing in this book"
The devil says, "Now, wait a minute, check that book again
All his sins are written down, they're all right there"
God said, "Devil, maybe you're mistaken all together
Maybe it's this other book down here"
The devil cries, "No! Not that book, not that one"
God said, "Devil, why you so uptight?"
God sets the book down, the dust flies
And on the cover it says
The Lamb's Book Of Life
Is your name in that book?
Is your name in that book?
Is your name in that book for sure?
If you've been forgiven
And your name is written
Then lift your hands, praise the Lord
Yes, my name's in that book
Yes, my name's in that book
Yes, my name's in that book tonight
I've been forgiven
And I know my name is written
In the Lamb's Book Of Life
In the Lamb's Book Of Life
