www.oginski-law.com When you walk into a courtroom in the state of New York you will notice that every time a lawyer objects, he or she must stand up and address the court. Why does a lawyer have to stand up when they object? It all comes down to a single word. Respect. The attorney must respect the court, the court system and of course the judge who controls the entire courtroom process. For most jurors who are sitting in judgment during a negligence, medical malpractice or wrongful death case in New York, they have not experienced the courtroom process before. Most people are familiar with how courtrooms work based upon what they see on TV and in the movies. When attorneys fail to give the court the respect they are entitled to, it creates a problem, especially when the court must remind the attorneys in front of the jury that they must stand whenever they object. In fact, the proper procedure is to stand up in a bold and clear fashion and tell the Judge in a concise manner why you are objecting and wait for the court to make a ruling.Watch the video to learn more.
