Thomas Gooch objects to busty woman in court
May 27th, 2011 - 1:04 am ICT by Aishwarya BhattCook County, May 26 (THAINDIAN NEWS) A lawyer took an exception to a woman with big busts presence in a court. Attorney Thomas Gooch raised an objection to the woman being in the courtroom saying the busty woman was distracting the jury. He subsequently wants the judge to order the woman out of the team of his opponent’s legal team.
Gooch’s argument was objected by the opposing attorney who argued that the woman is part of his legal team. Attorney Dmitry Feofanov was sitting with the woman facing the jury. Gooch told the court that his argument was twisted by his opponent.
Gooch argued that, “However, I object to somebody I don’t think is a qualified paralegal sitting at the counsel table - when there’s already two lawyers there - dressed in such a fashion as to call attention to herself.”
A hearing has been scheduled for the issue and Cook County Circuit Judge Anita Rivkin-Carothers is expected to determine whether the woman, Daniella Atencia, can still be on the legal team of attorney Feofanov. The hearing will take place on the 2nd of June.
The case is just a branch to the main case relating to a used car.
