When you’re suing your worst enemy for $100 million, it helps to have a lawyer who knows what they’re doing. Unfortunately for Amber Heard, her attorney Ben Rottenborn managed to pull off the unprecedented move of objecting to his own question in court earlier:

That’s just begging to have the Curb Your Enthusiasm theme playing over it. The reactions from the guy on the stand, the judge, Depp and his lawyer were just incredible. There’s also this clip showing how Heard’s lawyer appears to be way in over his head, with the person on the stand explaining to him what legally constitutes assault:
I love how Rottenness said that Amber throwing objects at Johnny Depp is not assault, and Sean Bett said Actually, it is. And Rottenbottom had nothing to say.
Where did Amber Heard get her lawyers? The discount rack? pic.twitter.com/6qjBegz91N— Demon Barber ♀ (@FleetStSweeney) April 25, 2022
That’s gotta be painful for Amber Heard. Just sitting there helplessly as her lawyer makes a prat of himself in front of everyone. Not to mention his name is Ben Rottenborn; have you ever heard a dodgier-sounding lawyer name in your life?
