Definition

(The court is) in session!: (The court is) now conducting a trial! A case has begun (in this court!) idiom

Examples

  • "This court is now in session."
  • "The Brian Jones Current Events Club is now in session, the honorable Brian Jones presiding, that's me!"
Exercise 1
At the start of the meeting, Brian tells us that "the Brian Jones Current Events Club is now ".
This two-word phrase is often used by judges to say that legal trials have begun!

Brian also says "the honorable Brian Jones ", meaning that he is leading or directing the meeting.
Judges use this word too!
At the start of the meeting, Brian tells us that "the Brian Jones Current Events Club is now in session 1".
This two-word phrase is often used by judges to say that legal trials have begun!

Brian also says "the honorable Brian Jones presiding 2", meaning that he is leading or directing the meeting.
Judges use this word too!
1 in session: "In session" is the correct answer. At the start of legal proceedings, judges say "The court is now in session", and Brian is inspired by this for his Current Events Club! When something is "in session", it "has begun or started", and is in the process of happening!
2 presiding: "Presiding" is the term we were looking for here. To "preside (over an event)" is to "lead", "oversee", or "direct" (an event). The person who "presides over" an event has a position of authority. Here's another example: "The Prime Minister presided over the cabinet meeting".
