'Your honor, for personal reasons, my client would prefer to wait in his car while the verdict is being read.'

Trial by Media

"Judgement Day: Division Four"

"Bailiff."

"Stop billing your daughter for reading her bedtime stories!!"

"Permission To Treat Prosecutor as Hostile, Your Honor?"

"I really wanted to get you off but I didn't want to make a mockery of Justice."

'I don't suppose there's any way I could serve my sentence on line?'

"At first I was the aggressor but as he got the upper hand it became clear I was the victim."

"Not guilty, Your Honor, and thank you for asking."

'Tell the truth: does this affidavit make me look fat?'

'I will not have the species card played in my courtroom, Counselor.'

'Come to order' 'I'll have a burger, hold the mayo, and a large cola.'

'I'll show you my fine print, if you show me yours.'

'...And zap him quick, before that bleeding-heart Governor gets back from vacation.'

'You realize, we can't use the 'benign neglect' method for everything.'

"Smile if you're guilty!"

"The truth, the whole truth and a touch of double entendre to keep everybody on their toes."

"Case dismissed."

"May we have a moment, your honor. My client hasn't quite memorized the script."

'No kidding? You don't wear anything underneath either?'

"No questions, your honor. It's all in my client's new book. Every member of the jury will find a free copy under their seats!"

"A cashier told me to have a nice day and I didn't. Am I liable or can I sue her?"

'Your honor, before we get into the issue of black and white, I'd like permission to slip into my grey suit.'

"Sorry we're late, Your Honor. My watch seems to be missing."

"… and when she spoke and you couldn't hear was it because you chose not to hear or because you had exhibit 'A' in your ear?"

'Why can't you take responsibility for your own actions?', 'I blame my upbringing.'

"Before I pass judgement on you, I would like to see if butter really doesn't melt in your mouth."

"When I'm with you, Miss Lawson, the billable hours just fly by."

'Is the person you saw with the gun here in the courtroom today, and if so, would you point him out for the jury?'

"Henry is addicted to all of the Court programs."

"That all depends on what you mean by guilty."
