I'll bet you $5 that he did know that! More than likely, he was hoping YOU didn't know that so he could muddy up the issue with the jury!
No, the thing that is wrong with this country is that a woman shoots someone in her place of business and goes on trial for it. I am assuming that she did not off her business partner or murder a customer. From your post, I take it that she snuffed some scum of the earth armed robber. |

You shoulda pulled out your gat and put a few into the fucker, all the while screaming "I'm Rick James, Beotch!".
Your client would have gotten off. |

Exactly - imagine the collective gasp by a jury if someone had an "unregistered" gun. Clearly an irresponsible loose cannon  |

It's pretty complicated, but I can't disclose the details now. It was not a robbery. It is an interesting story with which I will bore you to tears when the case is over. The proceeding was a detention hearing. The State was trying to hold her without bond on an attempted 1st Degree Murder charge, and they were rather huffy about the whole thing. She got a $75K bond.

I think Motown Steve may be onto it; either he was hoping he could get away with obfuscating the issue and making your client look bad without your objection, or he figured he'd at least try. Even with the objection sustained, since the jury didn't hear your client answer in the affirmative to the two questions it may leave them with the impression he (your client) has something to hide by making the objection. Still though, better than not objecting.

Pull a Geragos and demand a mistrial....the jury heard those questions and were left with the impression that you/your client were trying to hide something.

Good objections with great explanations! Make sure that comes out in closing as well to reinforce to the jury that the gun was possessed lawfully.

I want to be like that guy on Jag, fly fighter planes sometimes, go to all sorts of war zones and play commando, have a nice looking partner like catherine bell and then go to court once in a while and kick ass. I went to the recruiters and they told me that job is called 11bravo?? Does that sound right? |

"I object!"
"On what grounds?" "On the grounds I've always wanted to say that." "Sus-tayyyyned!" |

I'd make a safe bet that he doen't come at you with more irrelevant posession issues. He's aware now that you know your stuff.
Good job! |

Of course he knew. He was hoping you weren't gonna do your job. Justice is irrelevant. Putting one in the win column gets him the promotion. Good job. First time I ever said THAT to a lawyer. |

Just a detention hearing at this point. Client got out last night. It's in Jacksonville. I doubt there will be a trial. When the government asked for the defendant to remain locked up till trial, but the judge sets a $75K bond (very low for a crime punishanble by life in this area) a smart prosecutor sees which way the wind is blowing. If you shoot your best shot and a judge who's been around long enough to have no sympathy for anybody shrugs his shoulders, that's a clue. |
