Bert Deixler worried that his client, Jack White of the White Stripes rock band, would scare the suburban jury in a recent copyright case brought by a sound engineer who claimed he was entitled to royalties for albums on which he had worked. Although White showed up with a black bowler hat with a red feather, he won over the jury with a "long, detailed, nonlinear artistic description." Deixler said an unfavorable verdict would have been a "personal disaster for artists."

Bert Deixler had coached his client, Jack White, about how to present himself on the first day of trial in a recent copyright case: Dress as if you were going to church.
Instead, White, of the minimalist rock band the White Stripes, showed up wearing his trademark black, white and red color scheme: a black pinstripe suit, black shirt and tie and a black bowler hat with a red feather.
