Wasn't that a casual scolding judges often do to the parties as well as to the arguing counsel? Practical exposure to courts definitely will make one aware that it is the accepted mode of practice in courts that judges make statements often harsh towards the parties, that doesn't mean it is 'judgement'. It's really disheartening to see LI forums, where people actually have exposure to the working of law acting as the same bunch of twitter bum-bums who doesn't have an iota of knowledge of how the law functions.
