Thursday, May 30, 2024 - An American district judge in Michigan was left astonished when a man with a suspended driver’s license joined a court Zoom call while driving a car.
Court footage shows Judge Cedric Simpson’s suprised reaction
as the defendant, Corey Harris, joined for a court hearing from the driver's
seat.
"Mr Harris, are you driving?" Simpson asked the
defendant.
"Actually, I’m pulling into my doctor’s office,"
Harris says.
A public defender representing Harris then asked the judge
for an adjournment for ‘possibly up to four weeks if the court would allow.’
"Okay, so maybe I don’t understand something. This is a
driving while license suspended [case], and he was just driving, and he didn’t
have a license," a bemused Simpson replies.
"That is correct your honor," the public defender
responds.
The judge revoked Harris’s bond, and he was ordered to turn
himself in to the local county jail by that evening.
"I don’t even know why he would do that," Simpson
says.
