A DUI… and the punishment is coaching a kids hockey team?! In The Mighty Ducks, Gordon Bombay is sentenced by a judge to coach youth hockey. But could that actually happen in real life? In this episode of Doug Defends: Legal Briefs, real lawyer Doug Ridley breaks down one of the most bizarre legal moments in movie history: Can a judge really order someone to coach children as part of a criminal sentence? Some movie punishments are exaggerated… but this one might be closer to reality than you think.

Doug Ridley - Host, Defense Attorney at Ridley Defense
