Tangential question: reading the transcript, I'm surprised that two of the three parties' lawyers are attending the court session via speakerphone. Is that common?
- couchand 12y agoYes, it is fairly common. Keep in mind that this was a hearing on an emergency motion, so it was probably scheduled fairly quickly. There is significant variation in the scale of legal proceedings: full-blown trials pretty much require the physical presence of counsel, but early stage hearings are frequently conducted by phone.
