~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?"
