This is one situation where Derrick's borderline retardation may cost him.

These deposition statements remind me of AJ Daulerio singlehandedly costing Gawker their flag ship website, and ownership of all sister sites with his own ill advised answers.

"... We men..."

How is this a civil case and not a criminal case? "We men, ya know?"

I seem to remember that after OJ got off on his murder conviction he lost big time in the civil suit.

wow you've got a good memory

what the fuck is his lawyer doing napping? you cant let that be the response that is on the record. wow. he wasnt trying to be dissmissive with that response, he literally has no idea or concept of how his comments will be intrepretted.

I heard that pindick Bernstein say something like that the other day, you'd think a smart guy like Danny would know your lawyer can't say shit, he can ask for a short recess or two but you are on your own after your lawyer preps you.

i thought the lawyer sat in on the depo with their client who is being deposed.

They do, but they can't change the answer. Can't even really object in a discovery deposition. I mean you can, but it is meaningless.

Pretty sure your right to invoke your 5th amendment privilege against self-incrimination applies to/supersedes civil proceedings and civil discovery. Regardless of whether or not there's an extant criminal proceeding against D-Rose with this particular plaintiff, most of his answers should've been:

"Based on the advice of counsel, I assert my rights under the Fifth Amendment of the United States
Constitution and respectfully decline to answer the question."

other than basic fact questions and likely financial discovery questions. anything about the night in question or D-Rose's relationship with this particular plaintiff? 5th amendment.
