As someone who is unaware with how depositions work, when watching a deposition video and someone off-camera keeps saying “objection” but the deponent continues to answer without consulting their counsel, what is going on there? Is the statement of objection just there for the record, or is a judge/mediator off camera silently waving away the objection? Why does the deponent keep answering?
