Gavel-To-Gavel

Whenever there is an important case that’s about to make its way through the court, news outlets may promise to cover the entire proceeding from “gavel-to- gavel.” It’s a phrase used to describe everything that takes place between the first strike of the gavel, when the trial is begins, to the last strike of the gavel, when the judge announces the verdict and proceedings are closed. Here in Romans Paul describes the verdict in the most important case that could ever be heard.
