Traditionally the judge would carry The Bible in with him and all would rise for the "Law" entering the room. Now days the judges like to think it is for their position; but technically judges are public servants and don't demand that respect. Now it is just tradition from a time passed.

People are supposed to stand when any judge enters any courtroom; it is customary, and a sign of respect for the law as represented by the judge.
