Gayane Sargsyan, a lawyer by profession, has been working as a court bailiff for many years. Her mother dreamed of a different profession for her daughter, but Gayane was interested in the field of law.
“I had previously discussed and received the consent of my family members. Now I wear my uniform with love and responsibility. My first profession was as a dressmaker, which I chose at my mother’s initiative. I also tried to work as an investigator, but after seeing their workload, I no longer wanted to continue,” she noted.
The bailiff’s work begins at 8:45. They go through the day’s shift briefings and then get to work.
In the courtroom, the court bailiff is responsible for the normal course of the session and the safety of individuals. Due to tension, people may experience emotional disturbances, which are accompanied by various behavioral manifestations and aggression. “In such cases, the court bailiff needs knowledge and willingness to assess the person’s behavior and feelings, and to intervene. The intervention is done in the form of a conversation, in such a way that we do not violate the person’s rights and legitimate interests,” explains Gayane.
She says there are cases that make an impression, and they too are interested in what the final decision will be. In such instances, she strives to be present at those sessions.
