How to Know When You've Pissed off a Judge
One hint is when he asks if you are smoking crack:
Tempers boiled over in court this morning, with the judge in the case between Apple and Samsung flat out yelling at Apple for trying to book too many witnesses in its last few hours.It's never good to piss off a judge, but the fact that it's Apple playing bullsh%$ patent bully does infuse in me a bit of Schadenfreude.
"I am not going to be running around trying to get 75 pages of briefings for people who are not going to be testifying," U.S. District Judge Lucy Koh told Apple's lawyer Bill Lee.
"I mean come on. 75 pages! 75 pages! You want me to do an order on 75 pages, (and) unless you're smoking crack, you know these witnesses aren't going to be called when you have less than four hours," Koh said.
"Your honor, I can assure you, I'm not smoking crack," Lee replied matter-of-factly.
