Thirty years ago,
0:01
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
as a young attorney,
0:02
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
I was representing a Catholic school in San Francisco.
0:05
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
The school had been sued by the parents of a young girl injured in a playground accident.
0:09
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
As the lawsuit progressed toward trial,
0:12
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
I found myself at the courthouse,
0:14
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
preparing to participate in a settlement conference with the judge.
0:17
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
In the stark hallway of linoleum floors and wooden benches
0:21
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
sat the young girl and her parents.
0:24
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
At the other end of the long hallway was the mother superior of the school,
0:27
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
wearing her traditional habit and clutching a small Bible.
0:31
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
When the judge was ready to see us,
0:33
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
the lawyers entered the courtroom,
0:34
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
leaving our clients alone in the hallway.
0:37
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
And for the next several hours,
0:39
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
we argued the merits of the case in front of the judge and ultimately discussed settlement
0:43
S…
Speaker 2 (1779794619348)
options.
0:43
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
Periodically,
0:45
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
we would check out back with our clients and return to the courtroom,
0:48
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
ultimately to agree on a settlement.
0:51
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
I remember leaving the courtroom and informing my client,
0:54
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
the mother superior,
0:55
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
that the lawsuit had been resolved.
0:56
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
I also remember watching tears then roll down her cheeks as
1:00
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
she walked to the family to offer the school's heartfelt apology.
1:03
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
As we left the building,
1:05
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
she proceeded to share with me for the first time how upsetting and divisive
1:09
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
this lawsuit had been for the entire school community.
1:12
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
And walking back from the courthouse that evening,
1:15
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
I was consumed by several thoughts.
1:17
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
First, I was struck by what little attention I had given to the emotional
1:21
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
needs of my client,
1:23
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
viewing the conflict simply as one of facts and law.
1:26
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
Second,
1:27
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
my thoughts then extended to how our legal system itself devalued
1:32
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
or ignored completely the emotional content of this dispute,
1:35
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
literally leaving the emotions outside the courtroom.
1:38
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
Historically,
1:40
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
our legal system as well as society in general have devalued the role
1:44
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
of emotions by emphasizing the importance of rational thought.
1:48
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
We know this disconnection is at best artificial and more importantly
1:52
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
does a disservice to the important role emotions play in both creating and
1:57
S…
Speaker 1 (1779794619348)
resolving human conflict.
