Cool Lawyer humour


These are from a book called Disorder in the American Courts, and are things people actually said in court,
word for word, taken down and now published by court reporters who had the torment of staying calm while
these exchanges were actually taking place.

______________________________________

ATTORN EY: ALL your responses MUST be oral, OK? What school did you go to?


WITNESS: Oral.

______________________________________

ATTORNEY: Do you recall the time that you examined the body?

WITNESS: The autopsy started around 8:30 p.m.

ATTORNEY: And Mr. Denton was dead at the time?

WITNESS: No, he was sitting on the table, wondering why I was doing an autopsy on him!

____________________________________________

ATTORNEY: Are you qualified to give a urine sample?

WITNESS: Huh.... are you qualified to ask that question?

_________________________________ _____

ATTORNEY: Doctor, before you performed the autopsy, did you check for a pulse?

WITNESS: No.

ATTORNEY: Did you check for blood pressure?

WITNESS: No.

ATTORNEY: Did you check for breathing?

WITNESS: No.

ATTORNEY: So, then it is possible that the patient was alive when you began the autopsy?

WITNESS: No.

ATTORNEY: How can you be so sure, Doctor?

WITNESS: Because his brain was sitting on my desk in a jar.

ATTORNEY: I see, but could the patient have still been alive, nevertheless?

WITNESS: Yes, it is possible that he could have been alive and practicing law

some lawyers actually messes up at the heat of the moment.. why?? just like doctors do write prescriptions...

their brain moves/thinks/reacts faster than their body... therefore omitting or actually saying something funny/weird/inappropriate...

lol.. last one reminds me of gregory house M.D.
