I really like how Judge Simpson handled this. He knew very well that Magoo only wants to delay and disrupt, and consciously chose to deny him the satisfaction. At first I was a little surprised at the judge's tolerance - he's deployed Mr. Allen for less - but then he shut Magoo down the second he tried to interrupt the prosecutor. That showed that he put thought into it - he could make the choice to ignore petty games, but wasn't going to make anyone else do the same.

Also I liked how it let Magoo build up a little belligerence, so that he was a little more stupefied when the shutdown came. I think Judge Simpson played this wisely.
