    I believe it’s normal. I attended a public trial in Britain on vacation in ’96. (Nothing big, just a run of the mill trial where the public could attend). The judge and the lawyers (or solicitors is what they called them, I think) wore oldish-looking suits, and small white-curled wigs. One lawyer was female and I thought the wig looked a little silly. I think it’s mostly tradition. Judges in America wear robes, so it’s not that weird.
