Judge Sings Broadway Tune To Lament The Rudeness Of Lawyers

U.S. District Judge Richard Sullivan debuted a new song about rude lawyers at a recent meeting, according to The Wall Street Journal.

Sullivan sang the following to the tune of "If I Were A Rich Man":

"If lawyers were more civil

Daidle deedle daidle daidle deedle daidle dum

They'd treat their breth-er-en with more respect

Wouldn't always yell, 'object.'"

Sullivan's words resonated with his colleagues, many of whom told the Journal they've also noticed a deterioration of courtroom niceties.

His performance was part of the New York Inn of Court, an organization dedicated to promoting professionalism, civility, and ethics within the profession.
