Synopsis

Here is storytelling at its finest by two well-known North Carolina boys who are no longer with us Bob Terrell, author, columnist, humorist, and reporter who usually wrote his stories down, and Marcellus Buchanan, who more often told his verbally.


These are tales about people at their best and worst - both simple folk and people in high places. Mostly, the stories concern men and women in the public eye because they worked in our legal, judicial, or political systems. Disorder in the Court! contains dozens of hilarious stories from courthouses, lawyers' offices, and police stations all across the great state of North Carolina.
