The Judge Disses Lindsay & Her Attorney
Judge Sautner said: “This is a misdemeanor … she could have a trial and be acquitted and still be found in probation violation.”
When Mark Heller complemented the judge for having lived in New York and joked about her being a former detective she balked: “Flatter doesn’t get you anywhere in this court.”
Mr. Heller tried to tell the judge that it was impressive that his client flew all the way to LA when she wasn’t feeling well and the judge quipped: “Glad to see you’re feeling better … is that like a cold?” When Mark tried to say she had the flu she said: “The flu is a whole different task.”
Lindsay doesn’t have to show up in court again until her trial date on March 18. Lindsay has pleaded not guilty to lying to police, reckless driving and obstructing officers from performing their duties.
The judge said at the end of the hearing that she was retiring and that someone else would take on her case.
