5 жыл бұрын⚖️ Do you need a great lawyer? I can help! legaleagle.link/eagleteam ⚖️
A rookie defense attorney who defends his childhood best friend for murder in his first trial. Will he ace the case or fail the bail? Today we’re going to find out if Phoenix Wright is really an ace attorney. Stay until the end for my Legal Realism Grade!
Somehow this one never ended up on my radar. I haven’t played the game or the watched the anime, but I can see why people love it. But that doesn’t mean it’s realistic… Today I’m breaking down the first episode of Phoenix Wright. Are there other episodes that are especially good? Would you like to see me react to another particular Phoenix Wright episode? Let me know which one!

Pocket Squares: amzn.to/2UfsKtL
▶ Why Indochino Suits? (50% off Premium Suits + free shipping) [legaleagle.link/indochino]: Off-the-rack suits NEVER fit right. Indochino makes fully custom suits that fit perfectly using any material I want, with all of the options I want. And they cost 1/3rd of what normal suits costs. I’ve purchased them with my own money for years, so I’m thrilled they are now a sponsor.
▶ Why Ties from TheTieBar? (Free shipping on orders over $50) [fave.co/2ImLY9I]: Normal ties are too fat. Skinny ties are too skinny. So these days I only wear ties that are exactly 2.5” wide. They are fashionable without being hipster. You see them in all of my videos. TieBar ties are perfect, come in every color I want, and never cost more than $19.
▶ Why these Tie Clips? [amzn.to/2WIQ6EE]: It’s really hard to find affordable tie clips that are the right size (1.5”), look good, and are great quality. These tie bars are all three. Plus the 3-pack gives a variety of styles. They pair perfectly with 2.5” ties from TheTieBar (above).
▶ Why these Pocket Squares? [amzn.to/2UfsKtL]: I like my pocket squares perfectly, well, square. Like straight-out-of-Mad-Men square. The only way to do that is with a stiffer material that keeps its shape. I’ve exhaustively tried dozens of pocket squares, and these are by far the best. It’s how I get the perfectly flat pocket square you see in my videos.
--------------------------------------------------
I get asked a lot about whether being a practicing attorney is like being a lawyer on TV. I love watching legal movies and courtroom dramas. It's one of the reasons I decided to become a lawyer. But sometimes they make me want to pull my hair out because they are ridiculous. Today I'm taking a break from teaching law students how to kick ass in law school to take on lawyers in the movies and on TV. While all legal movies and shows take dramatic license to make things more interesting (nobody wants to see hundreds of hours of brief writing), many of them have a grain of truth.
This is part of a continuing series of "Lawyer Reaction" videos. Got a legal movie or TV show you'd like me to critique? Let me know in the comments!

I know it's an older video, but I wanted to clarify a couple of points. The legal system in Ace Attorney is very loosely based on the Japanese system. It's partially a satire of real elements of their system (like a less consistent pretrial discovery, which used to not be practiced at all in Japanese courts), but mostly a system designed to make each case an interesting uphill battle for the player. The Ace Attorney games are set in a dystopian alternate reality where the murder rate is so high that the government has responded in two ways: by assuming the guilt of the defendant (which is why Phoenix was trying to prove his client's innocence) and by putting a *three day time limit* on trials, giving the attorneys very little time to defend their clients.
@kiraina25 Жыл бұрын
Technically speaking these three day trials are a _filtering_ mechanism; anyone found guilty at these trials are held for a more formal hearing at a higher court (the Judge references this in most game over messages).

The storyline of Phoenix is actually very good in the games. He goes from believing that all clients are innocent and he needs to save them (taught by Mia, who accepts that her methods are limited and quite blinding at some point) to knowing that what matters is finding the truth so justice can be applied properly even if he is somehow connected to the case. It's really interesting the transition because the first game is basically in Phoenix's favor and every defendant is innocent, but then the second game introduces the idea that it might not be like that and the third throws in the personal factor, a real good story.

OBJECTION! This is just a small thing, and I'm sure you may have heard this before. But in the games Phoenix Wright DOES talk to Larry for a bit before the trial starts. Being honest, the games have more to show and possibly tell than the Anime. A single case story in a game can take up to ten hours, so they had to narrow it down to either twenty minutes or a multi part episode.

People always talk about Japan's high conviction rate, but Harvard Law did a study of their system and found that it's high because prosecution only moves forward with "sure thing" cases. They do this because Japan's court system is underfunded and understaffed. You can google the study for more info.

"The prosecutor can't just magically pull out some record and enter it into a evidence" - Actually, in Japan, they totally can! Japan uses an inquisitorial legal system as opposed to the U.S and U.K's Adversarial Legal system, which means things such as the judge having a much greater hand in not only evidence gathering, but evidence presentation (They can even question and interrogate defendants and witnesses) but also evidence can be entered during a trial, precedent also has much less of an impact there and judges have a wider discretion on giving punishments! It kind of lives up to the moniker of "Inquisitorial" to be honest, the trial itself places an emphasis on "discovery of the truth" as opposed to the adversarial system, where everything is more or less known and entered into the court records beforehand and the key purpose of the trial is "winning versus losing".

Since I haven't seen anyone mention this yet, the keychain at 3:01 signifies the friendship between Phoenix, Larry (the defendant), and Edgeworth (one of the prosecutors in later episodes). As children, they all enjoyed a TV show called Signal Samurai, so as a sign of their friendship, they each hold a keychain depicting one of Signal Samurai's three color-coded protagonists (Phoenix has the blue one, Larry has the yellow one, and Edgeworth has the red one). The keychains make several appearances throughout the series to consistently remind you that their friendship still holds strong, even in adulthood.

The dark side of that conviction rate being police who conspire with prosecutors to hide evidence, manipulate witnesses, or even fabricate evidence. And, of course, the fact that if the prosecution cannot 100% guarantee a conviction they simply won't prosecute. Charges get dropped, the incident gets buried, and with civil law in Japan being what it is, you can't even try and pressure them with the news or social media or you'll get sued for libel. Because in Japan, it's still libel, even if it's true. Sometimes especially if it's true.

Funny thing, these games were made by an actual lawyer, a good one too. They are based off Japanese legal systems though and they do things quite a bit different. It hammed up a lot obviously, but it's actually pretty accurate in most respects.

@TheVergile Жыл бұрын
The issues mostly stem from the fact that the game is episodic. As a player you discover the case as you play the episode. The same way you slowly learn the facts in any given crime tv show. Its just really weird because we dont see things through the eye of the police but through the ees of a defense attorney in the courtroom. The one place where you really dont want to get dropped in medias res.

Objection, the legal system in Ace Attorney does not operate under the law that states a defendant is innocent until proven guilty. Rather than the defense attorney needing to prove reasonable doubt, the prosecutor simply needs to cast reasonable suspicion.

Ace Attorney actually began as a bitter parody of the Japanese judicial system. At the time trials were seen as being incredibly rushed and unfair to defendants - hence the two day trial limit and everything being "guilty" or "not guilty". It's an element of dystopian parody that was lost in translation

The parody was instantly lost as soon as we went from the original Japan to Neo-California in our localizations.

Japan laws are very different, having breaks during the trial for more investigation, pulling out evidence in middle trial, etc are all totally fine over there... Nothing gone wrong really... but i think knowing how different their juridical systems are (which is incredibly important) i think this is meant to catch attention from the fandom of a series that happens to be based in lawyering...
