Ah easy way to oone up with a basio persohality

ability to 'nake a differehoe,' but also ih his value to
the dustioe Oepartneht. lf he should die, there
are dozehs of |udges waitihg to take his plaoe. The
|udge nay feel that he is a disposable oonpoheht,
a snall oog ih a huge naohihe that has suoked hin
ih ahd will ihevitably feed hin ihto the garbage grihd-
er. dudges who suffer fron these nisgivihgs are
desoribed as 'hittihg the wall' - ohe noneht they
are ah uhstoppable foroe for law ahd order, the
hext threatehed by their owh enotiohs. lf the |udge
oahhot overoone his doubts, he will beoone total-
ly uhfit for duty. dudges are hot experiehoed at
dealihg with their enotiohs; they are prinarily sol-
diers, depehdihg oh their speed, fightihg ability ahd
wit to stay alive. A |udge who begihs to suffer oa-
reer doubts will rarely speak of then with ool-
leagues, or will tohe his feelihgs dowh to the level
of a 'daily bitoh'. This is hot a suooessful nethod of
subduihg a growihg enotiohal trauna, ahd sooh
the stress of feelihg foroed to live ahd work ih ah
ehvirohneht that ohe oohsiders ihoreasihgly uh-
suitable will begih to take its toll. Typioal synp-
tons of burh out iholude hausea, gastroihtestihal
upset ahd headaohes ih advahoe of watoh duty,
typioally beoonihg worse as the duty shift
progresses. The |udge begihs to inplode, ah ih-
oreasihg dahger to hinself, his oolleagues ahd the
oitizehs who depehd oh hin
lf the |udges nehtal state deteriorates, he will
seek ways of ighorihg it, iholudihg ihoreasihg his
workload or visitihg the x-deok nore frequehtly. Typ-
ioally, heither solutioh is suooessful for lohg. All
|udges are required to uhdergo nohthly nedioal
exanihatiohs to asoertaih their physioal fithess.
The attehdaht ned-|udge oah sonetines deteot
his patieht's uhrest ahd nay refer hin to a psy-
oho-|udge oolleague for oohsultatioh. Oepehdaht oh
the |udge's oharaoter ahd the view he holds to-
wards his enotiohal diffioulties, the |udge nay agree
to the oohsultatioh, or refuse oh the grouhds that
he oah overoone his problens through foroe of will.
He is perfeotly ehtitled to do so uhless the ned-

atrio oouhsellihg, or be suspehded fron duty whilst

ahoe fron ah outside agehoy to overoone their

nore lastihg reoovery thah those who believe they
oah persohally overoone it. The latter will oohtihue

oh their regular patrols, or play oh old ih|uries to
get then oohfihed to hed-Eay for ihvestigatiohs -
ahythihg to keep then ih the seotor house, away
fon their oolleagues ahd off the streets
The |udge who oahhot overoone his doubts will ei-
ther self-destruot, or faoe expulsioh. He night
trawl his seotor's uhderworld, searohihg for illegal
drugs like braihwipe or ohowder to ihhibit his eno-
tiohal state, or oohvihoe his ned-|udge that he
heeds trahquillisers ahd/or paihkillers for hoh-ex-
isteht ailnehts ahd theh take ever-ihoreasihg dos-
es to dull his nihd uhtil he nakes the ohe fatal
nistake. Few |udges will request expulsioh fron the
dustioe Oepartneht, oitihg their ohrohio laok of
hope ahd faith ih the |ustioe systen ahd the `good
of hah. Whatever the soehario, a |udge deolared
uhfit for duty has several optiohs opeh to hin; he
oah live anohg the oitizehs as ohe of their hunber,
be trahsferred to Cursed Earth work oanps as ah
ah iso-wardeh, or be trahsferred off world ahd |oih
the Spaoe Corps. lh rare ihstahoes, the |udge nay
be eleoted for heurosurgery to renove the seo-
tiohs of his braih oausihg distress. The surgery
has a twehty-five peroeht suooess rate, but a six-
ty peroeht ohahoe of the offehdihg braih natter
regeheratihg, posihg the risk of the |udge hittihg a
seoohd `wall if oareful nohitorihg of his oohditioh
is hot pursued. A |udge pehdihg expulsioh, exile or
oorreotive surgery will be put before the ohief ned-
ioal offioer attaohed to the Couhoil of Five for eval-
uatioh. The regiohal oonnahder ahd seotor ohief
respohsible for the |udge will be sunnohed to dis-
ouss the oase ahd what renedies - if ahy - heed to
be oohsidered
Hittihg the wall is hot ah ihsurnouhtable obsta-
ole, ahd |udges oah overoone this persohal orisis
by adoptihg oopihg strategies. The nost effeotive
is to nake extehsive ohahges to their routihe, by
redireotihg their ehergies ihto the pursuit of pro-
notioh, frequehtly trahsferrihg fron ohe patrol
route to ahother, or by takihg their life ohe day at
a tine ahd leavihg their work behihd wheh they oone
off-duty, their anbitioh solely to get through a

fron their oonnitnehts, perfornihg their respoh-
sibilities to a nihinun stahdard, ho lohger pre-
pared to put extra effort ihto attenptihg to wih a
ohe-nah war agaihst orine. They nay deoide to
take up desk |obs, ahythihg to keep off the streets.
Ohe suooessful oopihg nethod is to fihd a hew fo-
ous for the |udge's life, away fron street patrol,

The fihal phase of a |udge's oareer spahs the no-
neht he energes fron his 'doubt spiral' to the
tine he nust take the Lohg Walk. Now respeot-
fully hiokhaned a 'grey eagle', the veterah |udge
has learhed to nake ohahges ih his off-duty life
to take pressure off ahy hegative feelihgs ahd
experiehoes lihked to his oh-duty tine. This peri-
od ofteh see |udges nellow ih their approaoh to
law ehforoeneht as they grow ihoreasihgly tired
ahd exhausted by deoades of relehtless violehoe
ahd stress. The grey eagle believes that the world
will 'sort itself out' ih tine ahd that he has beeh
privileged to spehd a relatively short but exhila-
ratihg ahd ehlightehihg tine oh its streets. The
older |udges nay ohoose to renaih oh the side-
lihes, takihg as few risks as possible, a oohditioh
khowh as 'WTW' twaitihg to walkI. host grey ea-
gles, however, renaih vigilaht, oonpeteht ahd
highly oohfideht ih their persohal abilities; sone
refuse to believe their nehtal or physioal powers
have slowed over tine. Sone eveh oohsider their
ohahoes at beihg allowed to renaih oh the
streets, whereas earlier ih their oareers they
wahted hothihg nore thah to get away fron it
all. Grey eagles are oohsidered role nodels by
the hewbies, ahd the helnets to a lesser exteht,
ahd they are nore likely to be sought out by youhg-
er |udges for advioe thah the niddle-aged oadre.
The grey eagle ofteh beoones sehtinehtal about
his |ob ahd wishes to share his ihsights with
youhger |udges. To this ehd, he nay be requested
to serve as a |udge tutor ih the Aoadeny of Law
oh retireneht, or take oharge of a tao group
where he oah hurture the hext geheratioh of law
ehforoers
lhevitably, the grey eagle nust retire. He will be
sunnohed to the Grahd Hall of dustioe where the
Chief dudge thahks hin persohally for his years of
dedioatioh, before allowihg hin tine ih a private
auditoriun - the 'last supper' - to neet with old

will how travel to the Aoadeny of Law take up his
post. lf he has opted - or beeh relegated - to the
lohg walk, the grey eagle will attehd a sonbre oer-
enohy held at dawh. He will walk beheath the 'steel
eaves' of ah eight-Lawgiver salute, beyohd whioh
he will leave hega-City Ohe through West Gate
Nihe ihto the Cursed Earth, or Gate Thirty-Two,
