    I had an opportunity of working with Adv. Mokhare SC in various matters. I must say, he's always on point. His arguments are unbelievable, they simply shows the level of wisdom that one has.

    "How dare you speak to me like that" The Judge wants to be respected but cant even offer the same respect. Why do judges want to be hailed high like they are gods?

      Lol not because of that only miss. He failed to respond to, the judge’s requests.
      And made a strict assertion that he was not going to answer a question, the judge hasn’t even determined was presumptuous or not!

    The Judge is also out of order. He failed to uphold 10 Commandment of a judicial officer, one of which is patience. You don't walk away like that causing unnecessary drama. He literally failed to contain his emotions.

    My brother you were correct, the judge must be fair and can’t order you to take your seat and verbally threaten you. As a court he is supposed to be the one who must kept and restore order. He could have adjourned the court and called you to his chambers to solve the matter. In the end another judge had to come to adjourn the case.

    I WONDER those who make anti adv Mokhari comments have they ever been in motion court proceedings addresing the court directly. Motion court can be ruthless if you allow yourself to be easily bullied by Judges like this "presumptuous " question which was in contention between Adv Mokhari and Judge Murphy the effect of that question was a very dispositive one to the matter if you care to follow those proceedings so Adv Mokhari being a SENIOR COUNSEL was very mindful of answering that " presumptuous " question will have an extinguishing effect on his client's case. When you are in court answer factual questions not subliminal assumptions in the question because you are there to present facts not deductive reasoning. So you must have balls first and experience to lock the judge on facts. Above all advocacy profession is not for those who got timorous souls. How can you potray your intellectual vigour against seasoned judges if you are a timid advocate, intellectual vigour need no person who is afraid to stretch court's decorum when the judge is showing untimely and univited intellectual superiority.

    @Thando Sisilana. Go and read the judicial conduct charter of the European Court for human rights. The decorum of that court was mirrored by our own constitutional court in terms of which the advocate is given timeous opportunity to give a road-map for his/her client's case in a form of opening statement. In this case that was not the position the advocate opened his client's case by a question from the judge which clearly contradicts the decorum of fair adjudication. So the advocate as I understand him was insisting on that decorum and the judge was being creative on it. Intellectual superiority is the problem in court proceedings if it's not timely displayed lead to this kind furore when advicates who are not timid will tell a senior judge (black or white) what time is it----- if you know what I mean.

      Nope wrong.
      Did you even watch the actual interaction.
      Firstly, he didn’t keep quiet and take a seat when the judge started speaking.
      Secondly, He asserted that the judge’s question was presumptuous. And then preceded to state that he wouldn’t answer the question (bear in mind the questions of the court should be answered). That is very disrespectful of the court! Not the judge but the court, because what he’s basically saying is that he doesn’t care about the judges ruling on the matter of presumptuousness.
