In a previous job, I spent a fair amount of time reading legal correspondence between civil attorneys. Nothing the 2 sides of this case have written has surprised me, full-snark and disrespect is the norm, in my experience. I suspect Judge G isn’t surprised by any of this either, but the sheer number of eyeballs on this case plus the wild-west tenor of social media is making him wonder if he has lost control over this circus. He should focus on the filings and ensuring everyone plays by the same rules in terms of document production, depositions, etc and issue rulings when they don’t. No more, no less.
@BrotherCounsel@GrantSmithEllis Do you think the judge is going to come back with some kind of mea culpa next hearing - assuming he learns his assumptions were false about a “leak”?
@LouPerez 0% chance they follow your suggestion. “Do your own research” is now considered some kind of dog-whistle instead of just being solid life advice.
The frustrating part is the tunnel vision by Judge G. Instead of considering all the ways someone could have found out about Proctor’s medical info, he jumps to the “LEAKER!” assumption. Seems that whomever sent the judge that information intended this very outcome, and it’s a bad look for the judge.
That’s what so maddening! He makes pronouncements “subpoenas have to mean something” and then he lets the subject get away with their shenanigans. AJ is residing full-time in Judge G’s head because of his dramatic style. Judge should understand that AJ is a criminal defense attorney, fighting for his client’s liberty. Gildea didn’t practice as a criminal attorney, so his experience is the boring motion practice and the snark civil attorneys inject into their correspondence. He needs to get over his resentment of Karen Read and her team - she’s the defendant in this current case and has the right to depose the people she deems necessary to prove she is not responsible for John O’Keefe’s death.
@MarburyvVeryMad Then he should get really pissed at whomever alerted him to that grave injustice and unprecedented violation…because he’s going to look really foolish when he walks it all back. JK - he won’t walk it back - in his mind he dropped the mic.
Yeah - it didn’t happen, but Gildea is on a hair-trigger right now because he is getting bullied by the lawyers and has no idea how to get control of his courtroom. He’s mad that the corruption in law enforcement is coming out and I’d wager he’s a little salty that the feds AND an outsider-lawyer are the ones to expose it.
Bwwaaahhhaaa! My daughter thought we were rich enough for her to be a socialist, so I ended her allowance and made her get a job and pay for all her own stuff. Now she is a solid, college grad with a good job who lives for F1, Mercedes and George Russell, and she believes taxation is theft…so decidedly NOT socialist.
@MarburyvVeryMad And the judge said “similar” information to what was impounded was posted to an X account - no one can find anything other than the document that came straight from the court’s own docket.
@MarburyvVeryMad That’s exactly when he lost me, and the clerk laughing about it allows me to draw “a reasonable inference” that the judge has been talking shit about Jackson to his court staff. Wasn’t this hearing about professional ethics? Well Judge Gildea, have a look in the mirror, sir.
Not the exhibits which is where the private medical information was disclosed - those were impounded. The “thought experiments” by other YouTubers were educated guesses and probables based on Proctor’s history.
Judge is still mad KR filed the MSP and Canton lawsuit 4 days before Proctor’s depo. Whose fault is that though, Mr. Proctor?
This is the way of things - cases come before the court, they make a ruling and then *ideally* Congress would act to pass legislation. Unfortunately, our congress creatures are just continually running for re-election and no one wants to do the actual job we elected them to do. Term limits for Congress!
How dare you speak thusly, sir! Please, please, please understand that all social media posts should be like newspapers and magazines - 6th grade reading comprehension at most. I don’t have time to expand my vocabulary, and Google is such a chore to use. I appreciate your attention to this matter. 😉
