Law & Order, Season 11

Judge Wright:
First off, I don't have to justify my decisions to you. Second, that sound you hear is the ice cracking underneath your feet.

Lewin:
With all due respect, your honor, you weigh more than I do. I request that you recuse yourself from the case of the People versus Reger.

Judge Wright:
Request denied.

Lewin:
Then you can explain yourself to the grievance board.

Judge Wright:
You file a complaint against me then your ADAs will never get to first base inside my courtroom. Based strictly on the merits of their cases.

Lewin:
If you threaten me again I'll report this conversation and our last conversation to the presiding judge of the appellate division. And if you step over the line in court just once, I'll take you down and you won't get up again.
