That pompous ass and his attorney corrected the opposing counsel multiple times when they referred to him as an athletic director. "Director of Athletics"! They insisted.
Once, maybe. Several times for something so small and petty?
Appears to have worked. Can't believe what that guy allowed JS to get away with. I bet the discussions with JS's lawyer leading up to the deposition were a hoot. DO YOU KNOW WHO YOU'RE DEALING WITH?!?!
Why so edgy Jack?
not sure if any threatened motions were actually filed.
...oh, it’s the name of a person on the transcript.
Carry on.
Or do you think he needed to do a better job of handling bullshit objections?
I think he should have just terminated the deposition.
Savvy out of the room.
when a judge is to be called. Doesn't really matter. Make a record, call the judge, just don't take a useless deposition. The lawyer may well have been just making a record that the lawyer and the witness were not cooperating. He may have had other fish to fry, he may have had a strategy.
I have no idea what he was doing in response to the objections beyond floundering. Moreover, if the listing of counsel at the outset is accurate, it appears that two lawyers are representing the same co-defendant clients. If so, why are they being allowed to tag team on objections?
Still not really sure what it all means after reading that twice.
