Howard,

How much does Joe Jamail rule?

Jamail is an arrogant jerk. He can be effective, but his conduct is out of line here and elsewhere. I've seen that video before. Had I been defending this witness, I'd terminate the deposition and certify it.

I do love the witness's line: "Are you threatening to fight?"

Just so. I didn't say Jamail wasn't rich -- he made, I think, his first 300 million on a contingency fee in Texaco v. Pennzoil. Still, he's an ass. His questioning really is out of line, and his posturing rudeness is just disgusting.
