In the mirror, you feel that it is OK for the person to smart mouth the judge; disrespect the system and ignore the law?
It's not ok that's why he can send her away for a few days or weeks. Lets say she keeps mouthing off should he be able to send her away for 10 years. 30 years?
I expect a judge to have a cool head. He can maintain order in the courtroom by saying 30 days and having her escorted out of the courtroom immediately.
Or he can give her 30 days and see if she understands why and the results.
Even if she got the 30 days; there wil be some that will say that such was to harsh.
give a person a chance to realize their mistake and correct it.
The judge did such and she took advantage of it. She chose to ignore the chance and then compounded on it.
So as long as she wanted to play a game; the judge was willing to oblige.
The article does not state who gave up first; her or the judge.
