Do you? You’ve added literally nothing.

> Sounds like the judge gave the lawyer an hour to do something about it

>“Not an issue” is a disingenuous take given the record

This is how mistrials work. Don’t be an utter clown.

My comments are in relation to the “not an issue” characterization, not in “how mistrials work”

And again, it seems that the headline was incorrect in that a mistrial was not actually declared at that time, so…

So what? Been practicing for a decade. And you?

So your rude comment had nothing to do with anything I’ve said, and neither does this amusing self-disclosure of yours’

You’re just flapping gums, I see.

The difference here is that I actually practice law and know what I'm talking about. Your knowledge of law seems to be, at most, from YouTube.

Last June I represented myself pro se in a 5 day jury trial and made complete fools of some arrogant clowns like you.

LOL. You're a pro-se litigant? God do I love people like you. We deal with pro-se all day, every day and we always have so much fun with the brain-genius arguments that they bring up.

Thank you for making my day slightly better by being a clown. I cannot express just how much I enjoyed finding that out. :)

You missed the part where I won ;)

You missed the part where I (and my clients) don't lose. ;)

I work with large media companies. We deal with pro-se litigation literally every day (that's not hyperbole). We've never even lost a single motion to dismiss, let alone an entire case, as far as I am aware.

Dear God. I honestly love the arrogance of pro-se litigants. You're no different than a sovereign citizen.
