Despite increased security at courthouses following shootings in Chicago and Atlanta about one year ago, many judges are bringing their own guns into their courtrooms for protection.
Earlier this month, a Florida judge was ordered to accept mentoring after warning a defense attorney that he was "locked and loaded." In May, a judicial ethics committee of the New York State Unified Court System found that it was ethical for a judge to carry a pistol into his courtroom.
As a state senator remarked: "Guns are like lawyers: better to have one and not need it than need one and not have it"
In order to cover all your bases, I suggest you get a lawyer who has a gun.

That's me, preparing for my first court appearance
