- So not really a court, babe.
00:00:03.000 --> 00:00:06.017
- We don't apply the rules of evidence that ...
00:00:06.017 --> 00:00:07.002
directly.
00:00:07.002 --> 00:00:09.068
- No judge, no jury, no right to discovery.
00:00:09.068 --> 00:00:12.998
- Our hearings are all closed to the public.
00:00:12.998 --> 00:00:14.003

00:00:26.083 --> 00:00:30.009
which was the first case ever tried in the program,

00:00:31.077 --> 00:00:35.803

00:00:36.077 --> 00:00:39.043
