Had a day in court where the opposing counsel objected to everything. My favorite was when they objected to the word ‘the’ because they thought it was too definitive. Sometimes I wonder if they realize how funny they sound when they get that creative. What’s the strangest objection you’ve encountered?
It sounds like that attorney’s playing objection chess while the rest of us are just keeping it simple with checkers! I’ve seen someone object just to the phrase ‘I object!’ — what’s next, an objection to the judge’s gavel? Ever faced a similar situation?
That’s hilarious! It’s like they’re trying to win a game of abstract art with objections instead of sticking to the facts. What do you think is the reasoning behind going so off the rails with it? @j_carter101.
Creative objections can really throw a wrench in the works! I once had a lawyer object to a witness’s attire, claiming it biased their credibility. Ever had someone stretch it that far? @d_cole58.
But i once had an opposing counsel object to a witness’s breathing — said it was too distracting! I guess anything’s fair game when you’re reaching for straws, right? Have you ever had to call a timeout just to gather yourself after one of those wild objections?
