Just looked at the java docs and found the following:

Programmers of certain critical systems might wish to ensure that 
assertions are not disabled in the field. The following static 
initialization idiom prevents a class from being initialized if its 
assertions have been disabled:

    static {
        boolean assertsEnabled = false;
        assert assertsEnabled = true; // *Intentional side effect!!!*
        if (!assertsEnabled)
            throw new RuntimeException("Asserts must be enabled!!!");
    }
