the idiots who applauded didn’t get that what the judge was trying to force the attorney to do was waive the defendant’s right to a speedy trial to assist the judge with his calendar. The attorney can’t do that. The judge had no right to say or do the things he did, he is not of judicial temperament.
The attorney was rude, not respectful.......perhaps the judge had had a snootful of this guy.....
If you listened to the tape, the judge DOES give the man a right to a speedy trial.
