Actually, my response is not nearly so excited. I say some version of 'that's simply untrue, and here's the proof,' and hand the judge the proof. This last time, the judge looked at my correspondence with the other attorney and looked at the other attorney, and said, "Counsel?" Then the other attorney said he didn't know he had to put everything in writing to my office, but he would know for the future. Insinuating he had called and said the ******** he claimed to have said to me. I just about came unglued and told the judge I was willing to be sworn by the court reporter and I would swear under oath that the other attorney had NEVER called my office, other than the call the day before the hearing. The judge once again looked at the other attorney and said, "Counsel?" Then the jackass just sat and glared at the table top in front of him and wouldn't reply. The judge just sighed and asked me for copies of the documents I had given him. While I was going to do that, the other attorney just freaking LEFT and hasn't spoken to me since. I WISH there were actually repercussions for lying to the court.

In a kind of funny side note, the other male attorneys in the court room at the time told me that they involuntarily were covering their 'vital parts' when they got a glimpse of the look on my face when the other attorney started lying.

Lola, the judge is a friend of mine actually, so he wouldn't put me in jail. AND I know that he believes me, which makes it that much more ridiculous that I found the situation so very upsetting.
