Just thinking it might make a less tedious process if all the defence, prosecuting personnel and the judge have to do their bit by mime, with white face and all.
Some of it would be very easy, like the defence "resting its case in a high wind", the prosecution doing "it's an airtight case" with the
inside a glass box routine.
However it would push back the boundaries of mimery with stuff like "my client was nowhere near that book depository in Dallas" so giving a new set of challenges for mimes and making court cases a bit more interesting for everyone else.
Not quite sure what the stenographer would be taking down, possibly pictograms something like the dancing men in the Sherlock Holmes story.

Now that you describe it, I'm baffled as to why this
hasn't been done already. |

Would sign language be forbidden as out-of-order? |

Smart criminals would plan they're crimes around
difficulties in clear mimery. |

+ Stenographers may draw stick figures. |

If the defendant is found guilty, will they be imprisoned in a glass box
? |
|
| |
Sentencing would be easy. Thumb up or thumb
down for not guilty and guilty, respectively. Miming
being locked behind bars is straightforward
enough, as is miming execution or hard labor.
Length of sentence to be determined by the
banging of the judge's gavel. |

I did wonder about that, the more wordy plea would take quite a while if your going to...what's the first letter, it's a "C"...sounds like...chicken? Ok Chihuahua... |
