Chaos erupts inside an Oklahoma courtroom as attorney Rob Hopkins is restrained by deputies after being held in contempt.

A transgender Oklahoma attorney representing a mother in a bitter child custody battle was arrested after repeatedly clashing with the judge, triggering a chaotic scene that ended with contempt charges, resistance, and a dramatic removal from the courtroom.

According to The Oklahoma Post, attorney Rob Hopkins, who was representing Julie Ann Kramer in an ongoing custody dispute, was taken into custody by order of Judge Laurie Jackson after repeatedly interrupting proceedings and refusing to comply with courtroom decorum.

The viral footage shows Hopkins repeatedly interrupting the judge, smirking at the bench, and eventually throwing a phone in a fit of rage.

The courtroom video began when Hopkins repeatedly spoke over Judge Laurie Jackson, refusing to yield the floor despite multiple warnings.

Judge Laurie Jackson: “You interrupt me one more time, you are being held in indirect contempt of court.”

Rather than de-escalate, Hopkins continued to argue, insisting the judge was refusing to hear the case properly and challenging the court’s jurisdiction.

At one point, the situation escalated further when Hopkins appeared to knock a phone off the bench, prompting the judge to warn about courtroom conduct as tensions rose.

The situation took an even more bizarre turn when Hopkins suddenly injected identity politics into the confrontation. Instead of acting like a professional, Hopkins attempted to hide behind her identity, suggesting the judge was only being harsh because she is a “transgender attorney.”

Rob Hopkins:
Or maybe because I’m a transgender attorney practicing all over the state.

Judge Laurie Jackson:
I don’t know what you are.

Rob Hopkins:
You do, ma’am. You do.

Judge Laurie Jackson:
I don’t know what you do.

Rob Hopkins:
You do.

Judge Laurie Jackson:
Other than you have just now—

Rob Hopkins:
No, ma’am, you do.

Judge Laurie Jackson:
It doesn’t have anything to do—

Rob Hopkins:
It’s happened when we talked on the phone.

Judge Laurie Jackson:
That wasn’t talking, let me tell you. You were entirely inappropriate.

Rob Hopkins:
You were yelling at me, and I did not even know you were the judge.

Judge Laurie Jackson:
And I didn’t know you from Adam.

Rob Hopkins:
I said, “My name is Rob Hopkins. I’m an attorney in Oklahoma City.”

Judge Laurie Jackson:
No, sir, you did not.

The situation turned from combative to theatrical when Hopkins was ordered into custody for direct contempt.

As deputies attempted to lead her away, Hopkins began a bizarre performance, screaming “Do not hurt me!” and “You just kicked me!” despite the video showing officers simply trying to secure her hands.

Hopkins began shrieking, “I can’t breathe!” and “I can’t move!” while writhing on the floor.

Hopkins then demanded a “female officer,” apparently deciding in the heat of the moment that only a woman should be allowed to touch her.

Hopkins was hit with a $25,000 bond and later faced an additional charge for resisting arrest, according to The Oklahoma Post.
