Default BB's in court

Please Login to Remove!

Holy jesus I had thought i'd seen it all until today. I was in traffic court (not for me kind of a hobby). Naturally if you know what is smart for you you atleast put phone on vibrate or turn it off better yet just don't bring it.

One of the last cases was a speeding ticket some 19 over the limit, gentlemen was well dressed looked very professional and spoke well. So as the officer is stateing his case this gent's phone rings....... HE pulls it out of his pocket says " excuse me this is important" to the JUDGE and Officer. I gasped and said " did he just ****ing do that!". The Judge proceeded to go off naturally! Deputy Take his BLACKBERRY, and take him to a holding cell maybe ill get to his case later today. Obviously he doesn't view the justice system as important. He may have to stay in holding until tomorrow!!

I was floored how could any upstanding BB user be so rude!!!

had to share

I like this story. Sounds like the guy was a pompous ass who got what he deserved.

Also sounds like he is pretty stupid. Wish I knew what the call was about. Probably something to do with whether he wanted the standard or deluxe annual service on his copper/bronze colored BMW.

Probably nothing more than his wife going into labor. No big deal.

That's a funny story. Well dressed, well spoken and well ignorant. Keep the courtroom stories coming.
