You are thinking he will just keep calling them into his chambers? This is highly unlikely and this is why Judge Perry told the A's attorney that he will rule on a hearing-by-hearing basis regarding their attendance. Hearings are one thing, trial is something else entirely. They were warning prior to the hearings that ended last week when the judge said hearing-by-hearing. They still did not listen and their attorney knew what it meant. They still were disruptive, disrespectful even after the judge made it perfectly clear in court that they're tethered to a very fine line and he will have no problem cutting it.
Depending on what they do, how they act in the next few hearings, this will determine where they will be viewing this trial. If they make it to trial and the judge observes one disruption they will be out the whole trial, IMO. They are not officers of the court that could be sanctioned or have their hands slapped in the judge's chambers.
Judge Perry is not responsible for the A's and is not a babysitter. It's not his job to make sure they behave and if not to school them on what is proper behavior in a courtroom. A judge in a trial has to focus on what is being said not on who is chewing gum and making remarks under their breathe, shaking their heads "no" during testimonies. It's intimidating to the witnesses. So you won't see what went on in the hearings going on at the trial.
Whether we want to see them misbehave, or not, if they don't clean up their act in the next few weeks I see them getting tossed or just permitted to be there during their testimony. jmo
