Biography:
Referred to only as "the Court" in "Monk," the Jefferson judge who presides over Monk's murder trial plays a significant role in determining its outcome (41): he appoints the lawyer who does such a perfunctory job defending Monk; he may even have directed the lawyer to plead Monk "guilty" (42).
