all rise
Bailiff's courtroom command
All rise is the courtroom command announcing a judge's entrance, directing everyone to stand as a sign of respect for the court's authority.
The bailiff or clerk typically calls it: All rise, the Honorable Judge Martinez presiding.
Outside legal settings, it may be used humorously to mark someone's arrival or to call a group to attention.
