"Your Honor, my ankle bracelet beeps too loudly. I want permission to take it off."

"Okay, I'll give you a choice. You can keep the ankle bracelet and stop doing things that make it beep, or I can put you back in jail."

"But Your Honor! I'm a construction company owner. When I meet clients my ankle bracelet beeps. It's embarrassing."

"What's stopping you from meeting clients in your home?"

"Well...nothing, really."

"Okay, then there you go. Either wear it and stay out of jail, or we take it off for you and escort you to your cell."
