You think it is Mr. Little who was out of line?

Or do you think he needed to do a better job of handling bullshit objections?

I think he should have just terminated the deposition.

Stayed on the record and called the judge, and not let

Savvy out of the room.
Some state rules state that the deposition is suspended

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.

That's my point ...

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?

Not a lawyer but it seemed that way to me.
