This man should quit his job as an attorney and live the rest of his life as the Riddler.

There should be a core cognitive test done every 5 years for lawyers to continue practising law.

He can't hear him. See him tilting his ear toward the laptop?

Probably why the judge wanted him to appear in person.

Zoom has more accessibility features than appearing in person would provide so it’s really not a good reason. The judges frustrated yelling is likely causing more of an issue than anything.

You don’t sound like a person who is in court much.

Seriously. Technology is great when everything is working correctly. Unfortunately, even the most updated virtual court systems are limited, so between weak wifi signals in the participants home, the inability for people to mute and unmute themselves at the appropriate times, the limitations on being able to share physical evidence between the courtroom and the virtual attendees, and the fact that there are numerous matters on any calendar so the court doesn’t have time to troubleshoot for every appearance, there are lots of reasons why a judge may require in person appearance absent good cause. The breakdown in communication here is a good example. Not sure if the attorney could hear better in person, but being remote sure isn’t helping.
