Mr. Drummond... you objected to the fast-tracking of this case. What's the problem? Well,...
Something wrong with the clip?
Quote
Judge Kipler:
Mr. Drummond... you objected to the fast-tracking of this case. What's the problem?
Leo F. Drummond:
Well, your honor... this issue's already been ruled upon by Judge Hale. The preparations required by fast-tracking the case place undue burden upon both parties, I believe.
Judge Kipler:
[scribbling on a notepad and not looking up]
Nonsense.
[stands up]
Judge Kipler:
Let me ask you something, Mr. Drummond. As a defense lawyer, have your EVER agreed to the fast-tracking of a lawsuit?
Leo F. Drummond:
Well your honor, I believe I have.
Judge Kipler:
[begins to laugh as he sits back down]
Fine. Give me the name of the case and the court it was in.
Leo F. Drummond:
[laughs nervously]
Well, your honor... I have to get back to you on that.
Judge Kipler:
Well, call me this afternoon by three.
Leo F. Drummond:
I don't believe I'm going to be in before three.
Judge Kipler:
Well, call me when you get in. I'm very interested in hearing about this case you agreed to fast-track.
Leo F. Drummond:
Yes sir.
Judge Kipler:
This boy's about to die, gentlemen. You do agree that we need to record his testimony?
Leo F. Drummond:
Yes indeed... of course, your honor. It's just that my trial calendar is pushin' me around pretty good.
Judge Kipler:
How about next Thursday afternoon?
Rudy Baylor:
Great for me, your honor.
Leo F. Drummond:
I'm sorry, your honor.
Judge Kipler:
That's a week from today.
Leo F. Drummond:
I believe I'm out of town.
[beat]
Leo F. Drummond:
Yes, I am out of town Thursday.
Judge Kipler:
The deposition is set for next Thursday afternoon at 2pm.
[smiles]
Judge Kipler:
Sorry if it inconveniences the defense, but God knows there's enough of you guys to handle it.
[Rudy smiles]
