1:31, let’s say that her honor would make a hell of a poker player.

Any facial expression from the judge, or did an possible appearance with the judicial ethics folks keep it hidden?

Suffer is such a strong word. I would say moderately afflicted. I mean, how easy of a job is that?

This is the kind of dramatic stuff you see on TV…lol

What a lousy prosecutor.

Oooh, ooooh. He got you, YS. He got you. “Yet”…sheesh.

Shawn, I wasn’t aware that you suffer from J.A.D. (Judicial Ambition Disorder).

Really? I can’t think of any. I guess I’ll just have to grow into the job.

And I think the appropriate phrase is “Why I’m not a federal judge, yet.”

Shawn, I think there might be other reasons you’re not a federal judge. (Don’t you have to be a certain age to be a federal judge?)

The government just rested. My learned friend is arguing the Rule 29 motion now. Then he’ll present our case.

Your client now free to move about the country?

I bet Southwest flies there. I mean, they fly everywhere, right?

So when the witness was done, did the judge excuse her by saying “You are now free to move about the courtroom.”????

I would have, but that’s probably why I’m not a federal judge.
