Amber Heard's Attorney Objects To His Own Question 

It's like her lawyer just learned the phrase "objection hearsay" last week, and is now really excited to use it in any context he can

This is what happens when you only train your lawyers to say "objection hearsay". They even end up objecting to themselves.

"Object to your own questions to confuse your legal adversaries." -Sun Tzu, The Art of War

I actually feel really really bad for this lawyer. It made me cringe. This is like the ultimate version of the waiter telling you to enjoy your meal, and you responding with "thank you, you too"

I get the feeling he has wanted to say “objection, hearsay” in a courtroom his whole life 😂

Amber's defense is a trainwreck and it's so satisfying to watch.

I love how the judge sounds so confused and almost concerned for the lawyer's mental health when she says "but you asked the question"

“You are without doubt the worst lawyer I’ve ever heard of” Rottenborn: “But you have heard of me”

This poor lawyer. You can hear the shakiness in his voice. His brain is probably so fried at this point from trying to find and grasp at any shred of evidence.

Lawyer: "Objection hearsay" Judge: "But you asked the question" Where did she find these lawyers??

Imagine taking all the time to go to law school, to go to court to observe other lawyers, passing the bar exam, being hired by a law firm and then practice law for years only to eventually be known as the lawyer who objected to his own question. That’s all anyone will ever remember of this guy.

When they say, “if you cannot afford a lawyer, one will be appointed for you,” this is who they’re talking about…

This defense is just laughable, they know they can’t win because they object every time someone is about to speak the truth. I hope Amber loses in a landslide

Lawyer: “objection, hearsay.” Judge: “sir, you asked the question.” Lawyer: “I rest my case.” Judge: “sir we are conducting opening statements” Lawyer: “Sustained”

This is the product of a man struggling with anxiety, knowing he is defending a lying manipulator and that he has no facts on which to base his argument.

Poor guy 😭 To be fair Amber is an incredibly difficult person to defend

I didn’t even know you could object to your own question. This is groundbreaking stuff in field of lawyering.

The fact that you can see Johnny's lawyer in frame trying not to bust out laughing is gold. At this point, I bet the whole legal team is conditioned to 'object' to any answer they don't like.💀😭

Honestly I feel bad for Amber's lawyers. They basically have nothing but shreds of evidence to go off. She's truly screwed them over, but in the end we all know she'll end up blaming her lawyers if she doesn't win this case. As someone studying law, this would be my worst nightmare.

The "objection" that was heard and seen around the world. I feel sorry for this lawyer.

It's wild how obsessed Amber's attorneys are with the term "hearsay"

Poor guy. Her lawyers are trying hard to digest her lies to make them look like arguments in the court but their brain is having a hard time catching up. Her position in the case is so weak that even professional lawyers look like a joke while defending her.

"I hold myself in contempt!" - Fletcher Reede

Thats so embarrassing for a defense lawyer to object to his own question on national tv. Lmao

In a little over a week this guy said 'objection, hearsay' so many times that it became a habit for him to say it right away whenever he hears phrases like 'I was told/ I heard/ I was made aware'. Truly fascinating.

imagine asking a question and saying your own question is hearsay LOL

You can tell in his body language sitting next to Amber in court that he could not stand her. I'm sure he's glad the trial is almost over and so will their interactions with her as a client.

It's so cute how Ben King laughs at his mistake by reflex and then quickly apologises for laughing… that man has so much class.

She's literally on tape admitting she assaulted him. How is she not under criminal investigation?

Her Lawyers are reduced to sounding like Public Defenders trying to spin her story into something defensible

“You don’t know how his finger was injured, correct?” “No one mentioned it to me at that time.” “No one mentioned it to you at that time, correct?” The look on his face lmao

Amber's lawyers are GREAT! Not only are they losing the case for us, but they're taking Amber's money too! Absolutely brilliant!

It's actually laughable. But to be honest. If everything your client says is lies, how can you build a defense around it? Lol. Amber is so vile.

I’m not sure what’s more entertaining, this or the fact that her lawyers took over 5 minutes to find a piece of “evidence” to question Johnny on, and then when he went to answer, they told him to get to it because they care about the courts time…and then he calls them out on taking forever to get the “evidence”!

"Your Honor, I object!" "Why?" "Because it's devastating to my case" "Overruled." "Good call!"

At the end, I feel sorry for Rottenborn. He and his team (except Elaine) knew she was lying but they still had to do their job. At the end, Rottenborn also avoids any tv show or interview. But Elaine wants her 15 mins of fame.

You can hear the nervousness in his voice. Regardless whose side he's working for you gotta admit it's pretty sad to see the lawyer stumble over himself and make these mistakes because he has to try infinitly harder to win this case for his client.

You can tell they're losing their minds because they're the only people that knows the truth but can't say the truth because they're on the wrong side of the argument

He says “objection, hearsay” like a kid who just learned a curse word.

Honestly kinda feel bad for her defense team. She lied to them and they have to build a case out of lies..and im sure they are very aware

I’m SO glad this is being televised so that the world can see her lies crumble before her, and the world can see this incredible loving and innocent man find true justice

even I'M beginning to understand the mechanics of hearsay with all this nonsense XD

I think it’s valiant that a man admits his own mistakes, and can call himself out

Poor guy - he was more nervous than the witness giving testimony!!

The disbelief and confusion in the judge's voice when they said "Wait but you- you asked the question" had me DEAD.

He seems a bit nervous. Amber must have yelled at him earlier.

Bruh he is so smart.... objecting to your own question is a tactical move to make your oponent confuse. A wise man once told me "Nver let them know your next move"

this is so embarrassing. these lawyers didn't have to take the case but because the money is too good to pass on for a high profile case like this. this also boosts their reputation. the huge problem is they don't have anything. it's like someone recruiting you to be a soldier and they will pay you a huge sum but they won't give you any guns for the war.

I applaud her Lawyers, they’re clearly on Johnny’s side, Sacrificing their own careers to save Johnny’s reputation, much respect.

I’m so happy this trial is going like this. Nobody ever said Johnny is perfect, everyone knows that he has issues with drugs and alcohol. But none of his partners have ever said anything bad about him. And people are always honored to work with him. When he started getting dropped from movies while she kept her role in Aquaman I was disgusted and so mad that the world wasn’t seeing what was so obvious. This trial has shown that she is clearly the abuser here. Regardless of what happens now, he is absolved of this nonsense and he will get to be part of projects again. I hope her daughter doesn’t suffer being raised by her. I hope she learns to be a better person.

If her lawyers were basketball players, they would call a foul on themselves

Whenever i feel rough in life, i come back to watch this to have a laugh. Good times, i miss this trial 😂😂😂

Realistically this dude studied years to become a lawyer, took on this case because it could make him big if he won or put up a good effort, and he realized how big it is and is crumbling under the pressure. Rip to this man's career.

This reminds me of a scene from liar liar: Jim Carey: “I object your honor!” Judge: “To yourself?” 😂

Did Amber actually think she would get out of this without being the most hated woman on the earth? hope she loses everything and more.

I cannot wait for this to be a movie and what the lawyers thoughts are and how their personal lives are affected, how he comes home to his wife and kids stressed and drinking and getting worse and leading to this point where he objects his own question. I hope JD gets to produce it and neither Disney(Pirates) nor HBO (cause WB+DC) can touch it. 🤞🏼

At this rate, I'm just thinking her own lawyers know everything their client says is BS and they're just milking her account dry.

“Objection hearsay” being said a million times and bringing up muffins is their best chance at winning lol

Her lawyers' heart is with Johnny and mind is with her.

I feel terrible for this lawyer, he is really trying his best😢

It must be difficult when one side has nothing to hide, and the other has everything to hide. JUSTICE FOR JOHNNY 🇺🇲

This objecting and calling hearsay on your own question strategy could possibly be the newest meta in law business

Lawyer: "Objection" Judge: "Why are you hitting yourself?"

He's so frustrated at not getting the desired response that he objected to the witness

This guys has gotten so used to saying “objection hearsay” that he can’t help but say it even when he’s asking questions 😂

This is actually hilarious. The look on the witness' face is priceless and his own reaction to realizing he objected himself is just perfect! "but... but you asked the question?" lol I am so glad AH's lawyers are terrible!

This guy definitely never made it passed case 2 on ace attorney 💀

This man had a Michael Scott moment. The tone of his voice even sounded like him

The good thing about this case is that soooo many people are getting schooled on the manipulativeness of a narcissist. Even A H own attorneys are suffering damage at her hands.

what makes this whole thing perfect is that Heard is paying THESE people a buttload of money for digging her own grave

"You passed the bar?" "Yes, hearsay" *"WHAT A SICK JOKE"*

"He's badgering the witness!" "It's his witness!"

To be on the losing side as an attorney in one of the most publicly televised trials in history must suck for him.... especially one of this nature where you constantly look pathetic and foolish.

“Objection, hearsay.” is the judicial equivalent to “but who asked”

The guy's voice was shaking the whole time. Probably heard the 'Person told me' and reacted automatically, not even paying attention.

What shows a lawyers true character is when they clearly are struggling to find a defense and know there is no defense, yet they still get mad at the other side.....like, how can you be mad when you know your side is guilty? It makes no sense.

This is what happens when you try to defend a narcissist. Even a lawyer can't hope to distinguish between truth and lies when it comes to them.

This is just an absolute golden moment 🤣😂 Even his own team are laughing at the stupidity!

I know barely anything about court room rules, and being a lawyer, but if I remember you’re not supposed to object your own question

“Object hearsay” “Y- you asked the question” “O- oh oh”

You can´t just ask a witness a question and call "objection hearsay" when you don´t like the answer they give. In fact, it would be good practice to primarily ask questions you already know the answer to for them to confirm so you can plan around their answers and don´t get surprised and have to improvise - or embarrass yourself like this guy.

When lawyers have to phrase the question with that many stipulations, you KNOW they know the truth and are trying to manipulate people for a specific response they can misconstrue. "Isn't it true that you were not specifically told this specific detail at this specific time?" (Objection to him being told, as it's hearsay).

I watched this live and found the butler very pleasant guy. Johnny was lucky to have him.

When you realize real trials aren’t as engaging as ace attorney.

This guy is clearly new to this kind of case. He should have stopped his witness, explained to the witness that they should only testify on their own firsthand knowledge, and then rephrased the question. He’s been objecting with hearsay so instinctively throughout this whole trial, he didn’t think about how important it is to treat unbiased witnesses like this with care and respect. He is gaining no favor in this trial. His tactics work in small time court by constantly stumbling the opposing side’s attorney, but in a case like this he needs to understand that the court of public opinion is going to heavily weigh on the outcome of this case.

This is just an embarrassment. I'd actually feel bad for him if he wasn't representing Amber Heard.

I love the "O... Oh... ok." After the judge says it's his own question XD

Your not a clown, your not the circus, your the entire carnival

Oh man, I missed that even the judge says “but you asked the question…”

The way the judge says "you asked the question" is hilarious...even she was like bro wtf? Lol

the quiet and puzzled way she goes- "but... that was your own question...?"

This lawyer seems very inexperienced and extremely nervous. He was the same lawyer who talked about his cat sending an email or something. I feel bad for him. Now he sits next to Amber and looks completely tortured the whole time.

It's crazy how in her recording she goes from crying to calm aggressive and all back again. Absolutely frightening.

The lawyer sounds completely unsure, lacking any confidence in what he's saying. I think he knows quite well he's on the wrong side and is audibly shaking with discomfort because they have nothing

It was this moment he knew he f'ed up. 😂

Amber ruined her lawyers careers with her

Lawyer: “Objection hearsay!” Judge: “You asked the question.” Lawyer: “Oh….”

Thanks Amber, for setting womens rights back a few years and causing more skepticism amongst real victims. I'm sure the rest of the women appreciate it.

Do they not realize that this approach only solidified their lack of truth? What exactly are they defending here if not a guilty client

You can the shaky uncertainty in his voice like this is his very first time in court. Amateur hour, truly. WTAF
