@@moresnacksplease526the judge is not his supervisor. He will have to do what he tells him. Then, every wrong thing will be on the judge. The deputy will not be held accountable for putting the lawyer in jail.
“Ex parte” is a Latin phrase meaning “on one side only; by or for one party.” An ex parte communication occurs when a party to a case, or someone involved with a party, talks or writes to or otherwise communicates directly with the judge about the issues in the case without the other parties' knowledge.
@crowtrobotsvideochannel6930 and what happens when a judge deems something 'ex parte' when it turns out to be a clear violation of the 6th Amendment ("witnesses must face the accused")? I'd say the judge is in deep doo-doo.
@@crowtrobotsvideochannel6930 Even when one party moves for an ex parte hearing, that party is supposed to give at least 24-hour NOTICE to the other side of the ex parte. This attorney is saying no one gave him notice of the ex parte
Yes. He’s been caught doing the wrong thing and if it’s declared a mistrial he will have to explain himself, he may even loose his job. By the sound of it, he probably should.
The entire nation needs to see how out of control this judge is. The judge keeps interrupting the lawyer getting the law onto the record. The judge never should have had that meeting; *never* should have happened. Then, the accusation of eavesdropping!!! This judge is acting as if he does not know the law. This is solid grounds for an appeal. This was utterly unethical. This would be a real issue for any lawyer and any ethical judge. It looks like collusion between the prosecution and the judge. Notice, while the prosecution is speaking the judge doesn't interrupt. The prosecution is allowed to put their statements on the record but the defense is not allowed. Wow. This is unbelievable. Steel stood his ground. I wish I was able to afford a lawyer like that, should I ever need one!

LAW--Ex Parte adjective done with respect to or in the interests of one side only or of an interested outside party. "the owners made an ex parte application to the High Court for a stay on the decision" adverb with respect to or in the interests of one side only or of an interested outside party. "lawyers are forbidden to meet with a judge ex parte, or outside the presence of opposing counsel"
In most cases! In this case, certainly. That’s why the judge didn’t want the law on record and accused him of eavesdropping. It would be cool to hear some seasoned professionals analyze this.
Wow , Sounds like Judge was intimidating a witness and threatening if he/she does not comply , all while the defense was not allowed nor told of the meeting. Mistrial
Is this Judge admitting to conversing with an already sworn witness in this case, if so he must be disbarred, and a mistrial called for a new Judge and Trial
The judge should have recessed, had the transcript and the recording of the private meeting hand delivered to all defendants attorneys. If Mr. Steel’s client received the information about the secret meeting and told his attorney then it is Mr. Steele’s JOB to maintain the attorney client privilege. Mr. Steele is right ,the judge is wrong in holding him in contempt.
@kimberlybates27 According to Mr. Steele's attorney, Ms. Merchant it could be, however, would definitely be an appeals issue if Mr. Steele is unable to properly defend his client. Most attorneys work on weekends during trials and need access to the files, etc. If Mr. Steele is in jail on weekends he would be unable to properly prepare for testimony during the week.
The witness was having a medical problem the judge thought needed inquiry. Was the witness feeling too ill to provide accurate recollection at this time.
No, Often times a child, or victim will be talked to in private in the judges chambers. Additionally, sometimes a judge will reprimand an attorney in chambers. Not saying this case is justified or correct. Just in general.
