If you read the law it says with permission... it does not state WHO may give that permission.

Whilst I would agree a judge can, I would think the clerk of court could as well... or maybe the janitor... or the bailiff, or the secretary in the clerks office... it is vague.

FWIW

There is an interesting provision in the law with respect to carry in a Courthouse or court. The same anonomly exists with respect to schools.

Carry is allowed in both places "with written permission." Curiously the law does not say who can give such permission in either location.

That raises the question of who can grant written permission... For example can the clerk of court give permission? The law is silent on the issue. Can a school teacher grant permission to carry? The principal? The janitor?

This part of the law is interesting... raises quite a few issues.

I'll be happy to grant written permission to anyone who wants to carry in either location...
