Want to know:
After a judicial conference on best practices in managing a courtroom, federal judges have adopted a policy of having two recesses during trial: one at 11:00 AM and one at 3:00 PM. At 11:00 AM, lunch is served, and at 3:00 PM, tea and crumpets are served. There is no rule or statute discussing recess practices. Meanwhile, in North Carolina state court, imagine that a statute requires that judges provide one recess at noon for jurors to eat. Paul sues for breach of contract in North Carolina federal court and loses at trial. On appeal, he argues that the district court was obligated to follow North Carolina's rule of providing only one recess at 1:00 PM instead of two smaller recesses. True or false, under Hanna part 1, a federal court would apply North Carolina's recess rules?
