Honorable judges’ remarks were less objective and more subjective. The demeanor of lordships throughout exhaustive court proceedings was less constitutional and more substitutional. Arguing lawyers were made to look like convicts while honorable judges restlessly pleaded the case for and against. Hooked on the court proceedings I felt that constitutional supremacy, rule of law, and balance of power were purely fictional concepts. However, it struck me as a regretful fall from grace for a few honorable judges.
