@@Kratos-eg7ez her lawyer was probably top notch. It's Amber who provided them with either half knowledge or either complete misinformation. At that case, even Saul couldn't handle the case.
@@drstrangelove307 Its still asinine. You could have bled them and given it to a charity or established a foundation, scholarship or w.e. That seems more of a statement than $1, ESPECIALLY with sexual assault. You were violated, so make them pay in a way they hate. What does doing $1 do for the truth? All it does is bring attention, not justice. Just awareness. You could do both by making it more than $1 and stating the reason. No one overlooks sexual assault charges via media.
The "Your honour, my client is not a large man!" bit sounds like something you'd see in a Phoenix Wright game, and suddenly the camera pans around to show everybody aghast with horror that they all missed it.
I actually kind of admire her gumption. I don't think she was really a fan girl, I think she tried to manipulate Gwyneth by playing games and she just fell on her face. It was super cringe. Honestly though, the effort and enthusiasm was kind of cool
@@intermidable definitely this, she’s definitely trying to build rapport with Gwen so that she can slip up. But I think it falls short because when she ask her tense questions, Gwen snaps back that she’s in a court case.
@@intermidable I just find the entire thing strange because - like, you're just not supposed to ask questions with hardly any relevance to the person on the stand. That's why it was objected against, and it's why decent lawyers don't do that.
I've watched all nine seasons of the original Night Court (and even some of the new 2023 Night Court) and use to think how unrealistic Night Court was... until I became an adult and witnessed first hand real court situations and that Night Court wasn't exaggerating, it was actually VERY, VERY spot on with the insanity and unintentional comedy that happens in many real court rooms. My "favorite" moment was having to listen to an old judge who MUMBLED nearly every word... and I mean MUMBLED almost every freaking word... and I was expected to understand everything he said. I had to learn a new "language" that I have called "MUMBLE-LEZE" to survive that B.S of an experience. LMAO. And I had to translate the judge's "MUMBLE-LEZE" to everyone else in the court room. LOL. Point of this rant? In the criminal justice system, the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: The police, who sometimes act like deranged rubber chickens on roid rage who sometimes beat other rubber chickens who might be innocent or guilty,, and the district attorneys, who prosecute while moving around and acting like a group of wounded rubber chickens... sometimes being directed by a judge who sounds like a mumbling rubber chicken who just mumbles and mumbles. TLDR: There are many rubber chickens in the criminal justice system.
That lawyer is just a Swiftie. Lol🙃 Taylor Swift counter sued for 1$ in her sexual assault case because the assaulter was suing her for millions because he got fired after groping her and her telling his employers about it. Taylor Swift won the case.
ikr? We used to make fun of how silly and unrealistic Ace attorney was, but the latest trials seem so much out of an Ace Attorney game, so funny to see lol
I’m planning on studying law, and ive been super stressed about it, but seeing lawyers like this gives me hope. If these idiots could pass the bar, i can 😂😂
Giving treats to the bailiffs is normal. They’re there a long time doing an important yet very boring job. I think the timing was a little off but these civil lawyers aren’t very used to trying cases. This was definitely not a GP choice
The poor judge watching the lawyers argue over the treats for the baliff just looks so tired of this case. How is this real they are completely unhinged
Watching your videos back-to-back and out of order means I went from Johnny Depp's lawyer's laser-focused evisceration like the culminating scene in a John Grisham adaptation -- directly to these two social studies teachers who each seem to have forgotten to take a different medicine this morning.
He is a legend for not laughing at them. :D He is just watching, trying to figure out what the heck is happening and prob be asking what is coming next
This trial has made me realize we need a courtroom drama series that is completely unscripted, like Murderville with Will Arnett. Just let the actors improvise and do crazy shit.
yes please! We now live in a timeline of nothing but Ace Attorney trials... but I feel like presenting evidence in trials is going to be a pain in the ass more so than the actual trials in the game
Suing someone for $1 is principle thing. It’s saying that you want to prove that you’re in the right and that you’re not motivated by money. Sometimes when you want to exclude someone from your will they’ll suggest you leave them $1 or some other pittance to make it clear that you didn’t make a mistake or forget them so the will can’t be contested.
@@natmarelnam4871 Yeah so what about the police? No they're not trained as much as lawyers, but they do through school and then do the complete opposite of what they're supposed to do. Do you watch too many films? The original poster is correct. Lawyers aren't necessarily good people.....
How'd they put multiple people in a room; one of them being Gwyneth Paltrow, and have her not be the weirdest person there? Hell, she didn't even make top 3
Not only is the lawyer's attempted explanation of the incident like someone trying to explain a nightmare after nyquil, but this entire court case is like some sort of bizzarre dream you have after taking nyquil, and you forget about it until later in the day when you remember one small part, and then the entire thing starts coming back to you and you start realizing how weird the dream was.
Significant Io moments: 2:14 Io appears 2:32 Charlie mentions Io 4:20 Io falls asleep 5:00 Io disappears 5:45 Io returns 7:31 Io disappears again 9:11 Io returns once more 10:44 Io changes her sleeping position 15:34 Io vanishes for the final time
The really most mind blowing part of this is that I was staring at Charlie’s cat licking itself, then made eye contact w Charlie and he immediately started talking about his cat like he knew I was watching it.
@@Titancameraman64 that line about wumbo. I dont remember the exact time but he said something about going from wumbo to mini or something like that. It was a refrence to when spongebob got his hands on mermaid mans belt, and he went to patrick for help
The idea of thinking of Gwyneth Paltrow as a villain of beginner ski slopes is fantastic. In each new town she would take lessons, and while accompanied by a ski instructor, become hellbent on running into people across the world. It would have stemmed from when she was a kid and had an accident of her own while on a wintry vacation and as she sat around in some ski lodge, flicking marshmallows into the fire from her hot chocolate, she was filled with an unyielding need to cause destruction.
She got rich for one reason. To be able to afford to travel to as many ski resorts as possible and smash into as many unsuspecting tourists as possible.
did they actually say that? because ski boots are pretty fucking big, and with them connected to skis or a snowboard or snowshoes, a 5'6 dude could easily be a few inches taller.
@@humanbean3 u make a good point but the way it’s phrased makes it sound like it would only add height if they were 5’6 and anyone else would stay the same height and it’s making me cackle a little bit
But how does one lose 3 inches? what was the reasoning of this line of questioning? The man underwent height reduction surgery so he could win this trial?
@@seaofbees783 he said VA which means the military measured this man at 5'8 and 185 when he came in for medical care after this incident. 5'8 plus 2inches from ski boots doesn't matter. The fact is Gwyneth weighs nothing (125-135?) and if she was hit from behind that likely 60 pound weight difference would hurt. But now he's 5'5ish and 155? What did they do to him? Look the VA has problems but they got his height and weight accurately since weight is necessary for medication. And most shoes don't add more than 3 quarters of an inch and less than 2.5 pounds.
I just want to point out how absurd it is about the whole offering snacks thing, and then how even more absurd it is to object to the snacks because “he should have brought it to their attention sooner”
It does sound absurd but if you think about it, in a way it COULD make sense. This was her private security offering to give treats to the bailiffs if I understand correctly, and I believe that could be construed as trying to like "win over" the courtroom with the treats. But then offering them and having them shot down is almost more strange, because if the other side said no for that reason, it could make them more unlikeable...? Strange all around though.
Yesterday was even more spicy. Gwyneth's team found a real attorney, who brought three experts on brain injury, and they absolutely destroyed Terry's claims and called him a fraud. One of them directly said Terry was just chasing money, and it wasn't rebuked.
If covid taught us anything, experts are not experts, the other side could find 3 experts that says the opposite to their 3 experts, however, not rebuking is not going to get you far.
@@kingcosworth2643 Not even with Covid but that whole sugar scam where the sugar companies paid so many scientist to say fat made you gain weight not sugar. Enough money can make anyone say anything.
That judge probably looked at both of those "lawyers" during this trial and thought he was having a fever dream. Like the look on his face while listening to the man talk was hilarious.
Her lawyer is having the "Got caught at the thanksgiving table smelling of weed and now I have to talk my way out while high as balls in front of the whole family" vibe
This hit close to home, lol. The one and only time I tried getting buzzed around family, I way underestimated just how noticeable it is when someone's on even a little bit of weed, and my mother immediately noticed something was off, lol. I think I started sounding exactly like that guy, started getting dizzy and bloodshot, I basically just claimed to be feeling ill, and went to bed early. I think the only reason she didnt call it out as me being high was because until a couple times the past year or so, I've NEVER been one for drugs, even legal weed.
I am an introverted law student who gets hit with imposter syndrome from time to time But the lawyers in this case make me feel like I am gonna be fine as a lawyer
It's normal to have imposter syndrome, even the best ones have had it, use it and become the best version that you aim to be. I've had imposter syndrome when I got my first job as a junior lawyer in a top international law firm, but I proved to myself that I belong amongst the people there, good luck :)
the whole taylor swift debacle was that she was groped publicly by some high profile dj, and when she talked about it, he sued for defamation for some huge ass amount. since taylor knew that she ~was~ assaulted, to make a point, she countersued for a single dollar (so obviously people would stop getting on her ass and say that it was just pr and money) and won the case. this happened in 2016 edit: happened in aug of 2017
That makes a lot of sense. Out of context the questions sound completely bizarre but even then, the lawyer going into such detail about contact with Taylor is so strange
Damn I didn't know that. Good for her. She stayed true to her word, knew she was right, and wanted to win the case to share her story and (i'm assuming) help other victims around the world. Glad she won
@@fakename2926 Not really because you agree to accept the 1 dollar payment as a settlement to end the suit. At best it ruins his future jobs prospects but it also means that getting assaulted was only worth a single dollar for Swift.
I think the craziest thing is the female lawyer. She is blatantly fan girling, she asked if she was friends with Taylor swift. Like What?! What does that have to do with anything!?
I feel so bad for Paltrow’s attorney for the baked goods thing. That was 100% her idea and she made him do that. I’ve worked with some of the most gimmicky attorneys of all time and that’s so far beyond anything anyone is suggesting!
@@mollusckscramp4124 fr. bro was crying internally about what he was about to ask. it's like a fucking fever dream where you are doing your presentation in front of the whole class and suddenly you realize that your fly is open. must have been embarrassing af even for him.
The way he asked about that was like when your parents force you to apologize to someone as a kid and you really don’t want to but you have no choice and you’re just humiliated and wanna puke and die while you do it anyway
There's an episode of ace attorney where phoenix wright gets severe amnesia like 5 minutes before a trial and then has to fake his way through an entire court case with no memory of who he is or what a lawyer does, this feels like that
Her lawyer is an embarrassment. Gave me anxiety because it brought me back to the days of when I had to make presentations in school. I was reduced to a stuttering bumbling mess.
My brother had a public defender and the guy really did a good job. He got him a good sentence given the charges and stayed in contact with my mom throughout the thing so she knew what was happening. Not sure we could have paid for a better lawyer
After reading about 'Goop' I had no idea that gwyneth paltrow was a much more unhinged batshit insane business owner than Tony Stark ever could be. She plays a very down-to-earth character very well.
They aren't wrong. lol. I wonder if this guy decided to go after Gwyneth because she has money. If that's the case, it's best for her to make a point the way she's doing now. She could try suing him for so much more if she is being truthful.
Exactly. The whole Taylor Swift correlation was because a dj groped her and I believe the dj tried to sue her for wrong allegations but then Taylor countersued for $1.
Are you seriously suggesting that a millionaire is making a point by not looking for money? She doesn't need the money from the case it could just be a facade.
Whenever I think to myself that trials in Ace Attorney are just too goofy to be considered realistic or believable, I remember that real trials exist, lmao
This :D I think you'd actually learn more about law and legislation from Phoenix Wright than from these public cases. This is just unbelievably ridiculous..
Paltrow’s lawyer looks like the kind of guy who’s going to say at the end of the trial, “On behalf of Gwyneth Paltrow’s team, thank you judge for hosting us” - like that awkward kid at the end of a school excursion 😂
@@tonoornottonoIt’s rude to thank the judge for doing their job. It makes it seem like there’s a favor attached or that the judge was in some way favoring the person who thanked them. There’s ways you can show your appreciation without breaking the rules of the court. Giving things to the court, bailiffs and especially the judge and/or jury could look like bribery. It could also unduly influence the jury to feeling more positive about the person even though their being kind in this instance might just be an act to convince the jury to find them not guilty.
@@steven1479 but once the treats come out, you start offering them around and who can say no to treats? The entire integrity of this trial, which up until that moment was impeccable, has been besmirched.
@@Person01234 You're right, I didn't think of that. It would be rude to not bring treats for everyone. You're right, I didn't consider the can of worms those treats could've opened up. I was shortsighted.
