Note
A regular plural, and it belongs to the countable uses of the noun: separate statements of opposition, or the formal protests raised against the other side during a trial. It keeps the usual preposition, so residents raise objections to a plan. The courtroom call itself, the single word a US lawyer interrupts with, is an interjection and never takes the plural.
