Trial Advocacy - Kulemesin Yuriy v HKSAR - The Neftegaz67 Interruptions, by a number of councels, of submission and of evidence were far too frequent, often unnecessary, often long and unfocused, resulting in a picture of a disjointed and disrupted trial... Particularly unattractive is the spectacle which emerges of the use by certain counsel of over-casual terminology, sometimes addressing each other ... Rather than the court, often several counsel talking all at once, sometimes all on their feet at once.. Leading counsel for the prosecution addressing the court when seated... Far too much informality, far too much cross-chat and lack of decorum... One leading counsel addressing another by his forename...as if the judge was not there : | 😟😟
