  • The judge was at a contentious court hearing this week.

  • A law clerk had to step in when the interruptions were frequent.

  • When the judge speaks, you have to stop speaking, according to the clerk.

The law clerk had to remind the lawyer not to speak over the judge several times after she interrupted the judge at a contentious hearing on Thursday.

The subpoenas that the New York attorney general sent to Trump and his children were the focus of the hearing. They were part of a wide-ranging investigation into whether the Trump Organization broke banking, tax, and insurance laws. Lawyers for the Trump family argued that the investigation was politically motivated and that James was conducting a civil and criminal probe.

At one point, Habba argued that the investigation was flawed because the attorney general criticized Trump.

New York Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron said that he was not a member of the attorney discipline committee. I tend to say that they are not part of the case.

How could you say that? Habba asked. They are part of the case. You can not speak to someone because of your hatred. You can not.

The law clerk reprimanded Habba.

She said that when the judge speaks, you need to stop speaking.

Habba apologized and said he thought he was done. My apology.

At another point in the hearing, Habba insisted that Trump did not violate any laws and pointed to the numerous investigations into his business and personal life.

Habba interrupted the judge to note that no charges have been brought in all these years.

There was another reminder from Greenfield after the interruption.

She told Habba to stop speaking when the judge spoke.

The interruption didn't deter Engoron from saying, "I appreciate your vigor, shall I say?"

Habba directly addressed Kevin Wallace during the hearing. Lawyers are not supposed to speak directly to each other during court hearings.

Wallace told Engoron that he was not going to engage in crosstalk.

Habba deviated from the focus of the hearing to air out right-wing conspiracy theories about Hillary Clinton and what Trump has alleged was an illegal plot to spy on his campaign and administration.

Habba asked Wallace if he would go after Clinton for what she was doing to his client. Are you going to look into her business dealings?

Habba's discussion of Clinton was cut off.

He said that the Clintons are not before him.

Trump and his two children have to comply with the subpoenas.

The target of a hybrid civil/criminal investigation can't use the Fifth Amendment as a sword and a shield, he wrote.

When they are deposed, the New Trump Respondents will have the right to refuse to answer any questions that they claim might incriminate them, and that refusal may not be commented on or used against them in a criminal prosecution.
