:19:03
If you're gonna knock a guy down,
do it so he can't get up again.
:19:11
What are you looking for
with this suit?
:19:14
Obviously, we're seeking
compensation for the families
:19:17
and punitive damages for wilful
negligence by these companies.
:19:20
But is that what
this is about - money?
:19:23
- No.
- Is that what matters most?
:19:26
- No.
- It's about this.
:19:32
And this.
:19:37
And this.
:19:40
Yeah.
:19:43
Yeah, I know, we have
no feelings, no compassion,
:19:46
no empathy for
our clients' suffering.
:19:48
Can I say something?
:19:50
What does that
have to do with anything?
:19:53
The lawyer who shares
his client's pain
:19:56
does his client
such a grave disservice
:19:58
he should have his licence
to practise taken away.
:20:01
It clouds his judgement,
and that's as useful
:20:05
as a doctor
who's frightened of blood.
:20:08
All rise.
:20:10
This court is now in session.
:20:13
The Honourable
Walter J Skinner presiding.
:20:16
Is this the only case?
:20:18
This is a lot of lawyers.
:20:21
Sit down.
:20:27
You're looking well.
The Red Sox must be in first place.
:20:31
Roger Clemens
is the answer to my prayers.
:20:35
You have some interest in this case?
:20:37
I'm a co-defendant, but it's not
my motion. It's Foley-Hoag's.
:20:42
- And that motion?
- Your Honour.
:20:44
- I'm Jan Schlichtmann.
- I know. Sit down.
:20:49
The matter before us seems simple.
:20:52
- Your Honour, it isn't.
- May I hear it?
:20:55
The intention here is to place me
:20:58
under a cloud of impropriety.
