How is it that the prosecution is allowed to privately confer with the judge in camera when the defense attorney is in the courtroom/at trial?

    They probably didn’t hire any lawyers for their writing team. This is pretty common in legal movies and shows. They aren’t making movies for lawyers who know about ex parte hearings. They’re making movies for the average Joe who can be convinced someone was found guilty in a civil case.

      I’m nowhere near being a lawyer lol. I just hate unfairness

      Edit: there’s just no way they don’t/didn’t have legal consultants to a one-over. Maybe their objections were overruled…bang!

      Edit: also I have a heart-on for justice!

            Heart-on is lovely. It sounds like something you love or are passionate about rather than making it sexual. Your meaning came across fine.
