He’s not his lawyer. This is a deposition and he was a witness who has no stake in the outcome of the case. I think there are a lot of laypeople in this comment section that don’t understand the dynamics of what took place in this video. The guy ultimately got sanctions for obstructing because he wouldn’t let the witness answer simple and fair questions. And he ultimately lost the case to the cool calm and collected lawyer. And he didn’t have balls. He was acting like a baby and being entirely unprofessional. That conduct would have never been permitted in a court room with a judge. In fact, with the way he was blatantly obstructing in this video, I’m surprised after they sanctioned him that he still even has a law license.

Do you think Attorney Mark A Perkins of Shreveport would have dared start this bandwagon of hate against Kouri when Kouri was ALIVE to answer back to the bandwagon of hate? On Perkins own site, commenters made sick false claims about Kouri's "miserable end" that his family refuted.
Ri2nonerok Because that interview is later introduced into court as evidence and it is played there. Judges and jurors are not persuaded by insults. What persuades is silent charisma, persistence and self confidence. No one listens to bravado. That is why lawyers like this are bad for the clients.

@@powerboon2k interesting. So he was sanctioned partly because of this deposition? Is that the first client or the second? Could you please elaborate on what that means?
@ Robert FrownyJr You're not paying attention. He said it @ 4:31 The opposing lawyer asks the defendants' lawyer, "Can you reconsider..." And then the defendants' lawyer (Mr. Kouri) says, "I reconsidered it and the answer is no." I have to tell ya, that is the shortest reconsideration ever. LOOOOOOOL!
Likely response - What do you mean, are we connecting? My foot will be connecting with your ass, if you keep giving me this disrespect, you insolent little shit.
I recently spoke to a lawyer about this video. I asked him about this man-handling lawyer. He said (essentially); In cases like this, you ask all of your questions. Let the person and lawyer play their games. Then, afterwards, you have to petition the court to re-do the entire deposition since the client and lawyer were playing games and not allowing the questions to be answered. He said you also ask for a court-appointed person to sit in on the deposition, to make sure this pinhead lawyer doesn't do it again. And when the judge sees the stunt the bully lawyer is trying to pull by not allowing his client to answer any questions and domineering the deposition, he said it REALLY works against that bullying lawyer. He said, "The clients think lawyers like that are kicking ass. The client has no idea how badly their lawyer is F---ing up their case."
Mike: Thank you for a very clear and insightful explanation of the dynamics taking pace. I feel sympathy (but not very much) for all those whose comments above indicate their approval of the big mouth lawyer. Such interference tactics are strong indicators that the offending party/attorney has a lot to hide. For Attorney Big Mouth, his conduct shows his lack of preparation and professionalism. He didn't do his homework. He tried to cover it up with a truckload of B.S., and he created the short-lived illusion that he is a super lawyer, an illusion that vanished after the client paid his attorney bill, and when the client was forced to pay monetary sanctions for his attorney's behavior.
I read the other replies to this video. It is obvious you are the ONLY person who did their homework. Very smart. I didn’t realize how inappropriately I initially interpreted that situation, until your comment. Thank you.
Hey Mike, Your attorney friend is right. And so folks know the outcome of this incident: The actions by the attorney in this deposition (and further actions of a similar nature), Joe Kouri, actually COST his client SIGNIFICANT additional monetary damages and got Mr. Kouri sanctioned. This is from the judge's order: " The December 12, 2007 order imposing monetary and nonmonetary discovery sanctions is affirmed. The January 24, 2008 order awarding TestMasters $592,260.45 in monetary sanctions is affirmed. The April 10, 2008 order awarding TestMasters $154,952.85 in monetary sanctions is affirmed. The August 6, 2008 orders imposing monetary and nonmonetary discovery sanctions are affirmed. The September 29, 2008 order awarding TestMasters $738,035.10 in discovery sanctions is affirmed. The September 29, 2008 order awarding TestMasters $70,325.76 in discovery sanctions is affirmed." These are all sanctions the judge approved against Kouri's client SPECIFICALLY because of Kouri's actions that prohibited TestMasters attorneys from their legal ight to the discovery process. When your client's big mouth and bad legal skills cost you more than a million dollars in sanctions alone … time to look for a new lawyer.

The witness has the right to refuse to answer and the lawyer can inform them of this. The lawyer trying to direct the client is not going to look good and it could also bring the the lawyer into the case as an actual witness or even as a subject. It could end up being used as evidence of intimidation.

Calls for speculation. Don't answer.
"Good Morning Sargent Major.
"Don't tell me what kind of god damn day it is.
"Beautiful day we're having Sargent Major."
"What are you, a fucking weather man now."
😂😂😂
Midsummer Madness overruled lol 😝
The amused face of the blonde kid makes this 110% more funny.
and guilty as all getout.
Dan Bracket: Sorry I thought this was an interrogation, I went by the optics and demeanor of the center character. Can corrupt be switched for guilty? In any event I'm no legal scholar, I know now it was a deposition.
Its like watching your parents trying to tell you off and they start arguing among themselves and forgot why their telling you off.
Well ... Blueprint did end up receiving discovery sanctions so I'm not sure how they felt about paying extra for Kouri's grandstanding.

I'm rolling laughing 🤣 😂 no way I could've kept a straight face.
Civil attorneys are some of the most uncivil people on the planet. ☝️🥴
The guy is thinking: " my lawyer has got balls"
Did you see his smile with “I was doing this while you were chasing cheerleaders”
@@rebeccam2176 that's a paraphrase of a line from The Godfather lol.
Thinking, yes. Once his lawyer lost his case? Maybe not so much.
He’s not his lawyer. This is a deposition and he was a witness who has no stake in the outcome of the case. I think there are a lot of laypeople in this comment section that don’t understand the dynamics of what took place in this video. The guy ultimately got sanctions for obstructing because he wouldn’t let the witness answer simple and fair questions. And he ultimately lost the case to the cool calm and collected lawyer. And he didn’t have balls. He was acting like a baby and being entirely unprofessional. That conduct would have never been permitted in a court room with a judge. In fact, with the way he was blatantly obstructing in this video, I’m surprised after they sanctioned him that he still even has a law license.
*Officer:* Do you know why I stopped you?
*Lawyer:* Objection. Calls for speculation. No foundation. Argumentative. Tampering with evidence. Grounds for mistrial. Instructed not to answer.
Lmao
Hahahaha
might be crazy enough to work, those local cops hear all that jargon they may get dizzy
LOL
Hahahaha
Is this guy a real lawyer? That’s the worst defense attorney I’ve ever heard in my life.
What!!!!! He is the defence lawyer you want. He is amazing
@@robertmarks2379he lost the case and he was sanctioned.
All that's going to happen is that a judge is going to later rule his objections invalid and they'll redo the deposition with him being forced to answer the questions.
This guy is a horrible lawyer.
@@cbirch7302 what trail was this?
@@robertmarks2379best of luck on your journey to literacy
thats why amber heard hired him for the trial
When I'm arrested im just Going to say "objection, speculative, argumentative and has no basis" Bet he was fully guilty too. Lol
" What is your name?"
" Objection. Calls for speculation. Ambiguous. Argumentative. No foundation....instruct the witness not to answer."
Objection😁
Michael Quallet I can’t stand when attorneys do that. “Did you speak with him” No, “so what did he say”. What the fuck.
@@stephencarlsbad except he didn't follow the proper way to object and caused his client to lose face infront of their judge. Also lost the case. Awful Lawyering. Probably the worst possible way to be a lawyer.
@@HopelessXzavier Yeah, I know. I researched the case. He blew it big time. I agree, terrible lawyering.
He got nailed to a cross for it too. I think he was watching too much Hollywood at the time.
It looked inspiring at first glance but truly wasn't when you find out what he actually did and how wrong he was.
🤣😂

@@Vecha302 He means because of the typo. It should say "I'm the blonde dude sitting during my parent teacher conference" but he said "setting" so the sentence doesn't make any sense.
What were you setting?
Thats hillarious
Puppy? Let’s take this outside.
"Im being straight with the guy, and you're being...

"I've reconsidered, the answer is no.' lol
"DONT LECTURE ME PUPPY!" ??Argumentative. Immature.

He said he wants to follow the rules...he's so quick to call out the attorney noticing the BS..he forgot about badgering the witness.

Who knew Alec Baldwin was also a lawyer.

“Don’t lecture me Puppy!”
I like how the questions continue to become more simplistic in the second video
The guy chewing the gum trying his hardest not to laugh. That was most amusing to me. LMAO
Yes!!!
Oh my gosh, I laughed so hard when the lawyer said, "I was doing this when you were still chasing cheerleaders." 😂😂😂👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Objection, speculation....the cheerleaders were chasing me! The ambulance chaser watches The Godfather it seems
He took that quote from Mo Green 1975 The Godfather
Yep....and we all know what happened to Mo Green!
@@chrisdher65 the same happened to Mr Curry.

"Don't lecture me puppy" 🐶 🤣😂
lol the defendant is like, "I had no idea depositions were so hilarious."
For those who don't know, this is from the Testmasters vs. Blueprint lawsuit, and Blueprint (being represented by Joseph Kouri) were sanctioned $1.6 million for this behavior.
Good. The lawyer is a douche canoe
Wow! I swear I've heard this guy before in numerous videos.
That’s not true.
Patience F. I think it may be u who is the douche.
what a great comeback gus...
“I have been ripping off Godfather quotes since you were chasing cheerleaders!”
Moe Green quote😂
This attorney is a clown--He was hit with $1.6 million in discovery sanctions for this unprofessional behavior.
The sanctions were reversed on appeal, dummy.
No he was not. I looked up the records! Sanctions were against the client company that destroyed records before hiring Koury.
@@bobperspicacious2903 Do you have a citation for that?
@@milart12 Why would I need to cite when the initial claims used none?
perkinsfirm.blogspot.com/2011/11/bad-lawyers.html
Attorney Mark A Perkins of Shreveport used SNIPPED video of a dead lawyer to promote himself online. KNOWING Kouri could not answer.
Do you think Attorney Mark A Perkins of Shreveport would have dared start this bandwagon of hate against Kouri when Kouri was ALIVE to answer back to the bandwagon of hate? On Perkins own site, commenters made sick false claims about Kouri's "miserable end" that his family refuted.
Is this bad for the client? Yes.
Is this highly unprofessional and uncouth? Yes.
Is it hilarious? ABSOLUTELY.
Ayyy lmao why is it bad for client. Not a lawyer but curious
Ri2nonerok Because that interview is later introduced into court as evidence and it is played there. Judges and jurors are not persuaded by insults. What persuades is silent charisma, persistence and self confidence. No one listens to bravado. That is why lawyers like this are bad for the clients.
J T that being said he didn’t get anything out of the client so the tape wouldn’t hurt his case. Just bc the lawyer is being loud doesn’t mean he’s a bad lawyer. Imo it was good for him
J T you’re reading too much into personal bias about personalities which varies from Jury to jury.
Daddy The tape would hurt the lawyer’s career. At least in the country where I prosecute.
If you're thinking, "Ooo this lawyer's tough, I want a lawyer like that!" well he was sanctioned $1.6 million and he and his clients charged with obstruction of justice, in addition to all the other fraud charges.
I was wondering if he got sanctioned. This guy needed to be disbarred
Thank you for the info. I figured that it was only a matter of a time.
The guy sounds like an internet troll, not a lawyer. Never thought "ooh, tough lawyer".
@@dordly You got banned from twitter, therefore all lawyers are scumbags with the exception of this one crackpot. Right or wrong, the guy was totally unprofessional.
What is this case? Do you know what's going on?
I was waiting for the defense lawyer to say "comprende muchacho"
LMAO
0:14 The witness
😂😂😂😂😂 The first client wants to laugh so bad!
Attorney A: "is your name mike?"
Attorney B: "objection, argumentative, blah blah blah, you're an idiot, don't tell me what to do."
Props to Blondie for keeping his laughs in
"DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO!" 😆 goodness
Lol I used Blueprint to study for the LSAT, get into law school, and now I'm a lawyer myself. So proud to be a part of this noble profession!
Don't lecture me puppy, I was doing this when you were chasing cheerleaders
SENT MEEEEE
Gets me every time
Joseph Kouri's client was sanctioned for over $1.6M for a pattern of discovery abuses, including this depo, repeatedly lying under oath, erasing computer files, and shredding documents.
@@powerboon2k interesting. So he was sanctioned partly because of this deposition? Is that the first client or the second? Could you please elaborate on what that means?
I swear I’m going to use that line on somone someday
"I've reconsidered, the answers no." LOL!!!

+El Grande Gringo Fantastico .....ұ.ұқ
Don't lecture me puppy lol
Where does he say that? I watched the whole thing and I never heard that.
@ Robert FrownyJr You're not paying attention. He said it @ 4:31 The opposing lawyer asks the defendants' lawyer, "Can you reconsider..." And then the defendants' lawyer (Mr. Kouri) says, "I reconsidered it and the answer is no." I have to tell ya, that is the shortest reconsideration ever. LOOOOOOOL!
Waiting for the attorney tell the other “you’re not the boss of me”
This guy is loving this hahaha. He's trying so hard not to laugh
“are you understanding me?? Are we connecting here?!” lol, that’s going to be my main line whenever someone’s just not getting what I’m saying
Likely response -
What do you mean, are we connecting? My foot will be connecting with your ass, if you keep giving me this disrespect, you insolent little shit.
It's bullying from an entitled jackass
That's dumb
😂🤣
I read this exactly when he said that O_o
“Could you reconsider”
*I’ve reconsidered and the answer is no*
Lmao
DiabolicNick lol!
I love how he throws in "Attorney/Client Privilege" just for good measure. Did I miss anything?
They need a judge for mediation
Objection: that is a question.
I recently spoke to a lawyer about this video. I asked him about this man-handling lawyer. He said (essentially); In cases like this, you ask all of your questions. Let the person and lawyer play their games. Then, afterwards, you have to petition the court to re-do the entire deposition since the client and lawyer were playing games and not allowing the questions to be answered. He said you also ask for a court-appointed person to sit in on the deposition, to make sure this pinhead lawyer doesn't do it again. And when the judge sees the stunt the bully lawyer is trying to pull by not allowing his client to answer any questions and domineering the deposition, he said it REALLY works against that bullying lawyer. He said, "The clients think lawyers like that are kicking ass. The client has no idea how badly their lawyer is F---ing up their case."
Mike: Thank you for a very clear and insightful explanation of the dynamics taking pace. I feel sympathy (but not very much) for all those whose comments above indicate their approval of the big mouth lawyer. Such interference tactics are strong indicators that the offending party/attorney has a lot to hide. For Attorney Big Mouth, his conduct shows his lack of preparation and professionalism. He didn't do his homework. He tried to cover it up with a truckload of B.S., and he created the short-lived illusion that he is a super lawyer, an illusion that vanished after the client paid his attorney bill, and when the client was forced to pay monetary sanctions for his attorney's behavior.
I read the other replies to this video. It is obvious you are the ONLY person who did their homework. Very smart. I didn’t realize how inappropriately I initially interpreted that situation, until your comment. Thank you.
So basically the lawyer is increasing his client's bill
Hey Mike, Your attorney friend is right. And so folks know the outcome of this incident: The actions by the attorney in this deposition (and further actions of a similar nature), Joe Kouri, actually COST his client SIGNIFICANT additional monetary damages and got Mr. Kouri sanctioned. This is from the judge's order: " The December 12, 2007 order imposing monetary and nonmonetary discovery sanctions is affirmed. The January 24, 2008 order awarding TestMasters $592,260.45 in monetary sanctions is affirmed. The April 10, 2008 order awarding TestMasters $154,952.85 in monetary sanctions is affirmed. The August 6, 2008 orders imposing monetary and nonmonetary discovery sanctions are affirmed. The September 29, 2008 order awarding TestMasters $738,035.10 in discovery sanctions is affirmed. The September 29, 2008 order awarding TestMasters $70,325.76 in discovery sanctions is affirmed." These are all sanctions the judge approved against Kouri's client SPECIFICALLY because of Kouri's actions that prohibited TestMasters attorneys from their legal ight to the discovery process. When your client's big mouth and bad legal skills cost you more than a million dollars in sanctions alone … time to look for a new lawyer.
A lawyer that doesn't want clients to have to answer leading, bullshit questions. What a bully.
If that's a lawyer I'm a jet pilot. I would fire that mad man
2:36 did he just call another man puppy? 😂
Yes he did! LOL!
Haha yeah. That's how you know he is trying to hard to be a dick. He is searching for things to say lol
😂😂😂 he did...he did..
Lol oh yeah!
@rj zander yeah I get that. Its just ridiculous
I work in a court reporting firm. This is very very very common lol. And hilarious.
what is a court reporting firm?
A company that hires and provides people that dictate court and depositions like these
@@phillyfan3942 were the ones employ the court reporter that type down word for word what's said in depositions, court, etc. We also do subpoenas for medical, employment, insurance records if you're in a car accident, workers comp case, stuff like that.

There is nothing funny about it. The questions are going to get asked at some point. Arguing and fighting like that is not going to avoid this.
The witness has the right to refuse to answer and the lawyer can inform them of this. The lawyer trying to direct the client is not going to look good and it could also bring the the lawyer into the case as an actual witness or even as a subject.
It could end up being used as evidence of intimidation.
Omg What? This happens? Does it ever catch up with them? Does a judge fuss at them?
