Courtroom antiques ....
There can never be enough said of the virtues, dangers, the power of a shared laugh.
~Françoise Sagan
* Lawyer: "How far apart were the vehicles at the time of the collision?" * Lawyer: "And you check your radar unit frequently?" * Officer: "Yes, I do." * Lawyer: "And was your radar unit functioning correctly at the time you had the plaintiff on radar?" * Officer: "Yes, it was malfunctioning correctly." * Lawyer: "What happened then?" * Witness: "He told me, he says, 'I have to kill you because you can identify me.'" * Lawyer: "Did he kill you?" * Witness: "No." * * *
* Lawyer: "Now sir, I'm sure you are an intelligent and honest man--" * Witness: "Thank you. If I weren't under oath, I'd return the compliment." * * *
* Lawyer: "You were there until the time you left, is that true?" * * *
* Lawyer: "So you were gone until you returned?" * * *
* Lawyer: "The youngest son, the 20 year old, how old is he?" * * * A good laugh and a long sleep are the best cures in the doctor's book. ~Irish Proverb |
