They are supposed to be, but unfortunately they aren't always. I had an issue a few years ago with a company I worked with. Won't get into the details, but long story short it went to court after they fired me for unjust reasons. The judge who was a pre-trial judge was very much acting like an asshole, to the point where my former employers legal aide was like "hold on a second, no one should be treated like this". We settled out of court as we didn't want to chance getting that judge again.

But the judge himself was countering everything I was saying. I asked for my father to help speak for me as I at the time had issues speaking in public, and he outright refused. I asked if I could take a second to think about my answer and he kept badgering me to speed it up, despite less than 3 seconds happening.
