Comment on The doctor then had to go and treat that lawyer for being a burn victim
Xanthrax@lemmy.world 5 weeks agoSarcasm does not fly in court. Everything you say can and will be used against you. You do not have to be the defendant for that to apply.

What a complete and utter rubbish.

That was my experience. You also have to remember I I was in civil court.

You made a general statement that MOST of people lost their cases just because they were sarcastic. This is utter tosh.
Judges may not like sarcasm, no argument here. But to say that most people lost due to sarcasm is a complete nonsense.

That is what I said, yes. I had to sit through everyone else’s cases. If they were rude, they lost. Most of them that lost were rude.
