    Default I'm off to testify

    As the supposed expert witness . . .

    "If the glove don't fit, you must aquit!"

    I really wanna use that line tomorrow, but it's civil dispute over the construction of a building for a community college.

    *yawn*

    To liven it up, just jump out of your chair at the first objection and shout, "YOU'RE OUT OF ORDER! YOU'RE ALL OUT OF ORDER!!!"

    The jury will love it. Of course, the guy who hired you probably won't be too pleased...

    If the building holds students, you must use jurisprudence!

    that will make the folks you're testifying against pretty happy cuz everyone's gonna think you're insane.

    uh, if you plan on doing that, could you get someone to tape it for me?

    They're right outside your door, now testify!



    Which I'm sure will rile up some music nerd one way or the other.

    I'm back . . .

    Kicked butt and took names . . . now feel guilty (my client is a jerk).

    Fortunately they didn't ask me about my feelings for my client during cross-examination.

    I need a new job - there's no satisfaction in doing something well for someone that doesn't deserve it.

    Unfortunately, many clients are.

    But, don't be too hard on yourself. You did your job. It's not your fault the other side either didn't ask the right questions on cross or didn't have the facts on their side to begin with.

    No - actually makes me feel better someone else feels the same about my profession. ;)

    I was honest. I just left out opinions that were damaging, and they never pinned me down on cross.
