Benjamin Sorkin didn't answer questions as he leaves court -- but NBC 10 caught his reaction to our presence in Center City Thursday afternoon.

"What are you nuts?" he said, as he appeared to run into NBC 10's Deanna Durante.

"What do you mean am I nuts you ran into me," replied Durante.

Durante and Sorkin both stayed on their feet during the collision and both continued to walk along after a short conversation.
