Lawyers and judges saw a lot of dicks during covid when everyone had to learn how to video chat for court.
Everything from the accused laying in bed, in pajamas, with a bowl of cereal and a blunt, to mirrors betraying whole-moon asses, to a guy being charged with improper storage of a firearm with shotgun leaning against the wall behind him.
The court prohibits the wearing of shorts, skorts, sleeveless shirts, hats/caps (excluding ones worn for religious or cultural reasons) and “other clothing not suitable in a Court or any other professional environment.”
Well, he complied with that rule.
I haven't worn pants for interviews in years.
Honestly wearing pants is weird.
Not wearing pants on camera is as old as TV itself. Always enjoyed this episode of Mayne Street highlighting this phenomenon and the problems when anchors no longer got to sit behind a desk. Also, rewatching this and realizing it has a couple people who would go into more noticeable roles on Parks and Recreation.
Of course it's Judge Sean Perkins. This poor bastard cannot catch a break.
Im not a big fan of law enforcement but boy am I sick of societies obsession with pants. Can't go anywhere without a pants nazi saying put some pants on and im like. no you. and they are like im wearing pants. and im all like well good for you then.

CUZ THIS IS MY UNITED STATES OF WHATEVER.
I went down to the beach and I saw Kiki, and she was all like awww, and I was like yeah, whatever!
And then I was like... At the mall or whatever and she was like "shouldnt you have some kinda like pants on or something?"
And I was like "yeah whatever!" 😏
^this guy jorts
no shoes, no pants, no service.
A travesty.
Actually, I want shoes. No pants, no problem.
Yeah I’m not leaving my house without shoes
oh I agree. Shoes are essential and socks if its cold out.
That video was actually worth the watch. I belly laughed at the incredulity of the judge... "You... You got some pants on there Officer??"....
Classic
Yeah, I was expecting some sort of accidental “Oops they saw my basketball shorts when I stood up” type of scenario. Instead, we straight up had Barry Wood greeting us.
Upon seeing Jackson’s state of dress, Judge Sean Perkins asked, “You got some pants on, officer?”
Jackson is seen replying, “No, sir,” before changing his camera’s framing so his lower body was no longer visible.
The rest of the hearing went on as planned.
At least he was polite about it
I thought it was gonna be less obvious but nope, lack of pants was put on full display
Gotta keep your phone in landscape mode for the Zoom call!
This should grounds for immediate case dismissal
“your honor, my accuser can’t even be bothered to put on pants”
Good lord it was like a crotch shot.
"Why am I not wearing pants? A better question is why are you wearing pants?"
Not quite as good as “I’m not a cat” but funny
Usually it is the defendant trying to get off during court proceedings.
Hey honey, how was your day at work?
Yeah you know.... It was aight.
plot twist: he was zooming in from his squad car
How is the off camera state of dress relevant? Why are they using cameras to begin with?
Everything a cop or judge does should be on camera.
Fair
Because it was very much on camera. Rtfa
court cases are not phone calls
I need to see that sausage
