Impolitic.

Early in my trial, the judge had a question for a witness.

My opponent objected: "Objection! Assumes facts not in evidence; misstates the testimony."

Ruling on his own question, the judge responded: "It most certainly does not! Overruled."

An inauspicious start for my distinguished colleague.
