The defense lawyer then turned to shake hands with the police officer. The cop REFUSED to shake hands with the defense lawyer then turned and stamped out of the court room like a spoiled brat.

Question: are traffic tickets THAT big of a deal? Is winning a traffic ticket case THAT important to a cop's identity and ego? Seems in some cases, it is......
Another one of those "friends"? Not to say I don't believe you but I don't.

Brilliant. Until you mentioned it, I always assumed you picked a lawyer by the tie color. Thanks for the titbit.

I don't shake my opponent's hands in court or anyplace. As to what else happened, all we have is your word via your "friend".

Or maybe, just maybe, he felt that your buddy should have been ticketed because it was the right thing and not let off?
