Next week a guy is contesting a parking ticket for parking in a handicapped space without a placard.
His written explanation is that his client is very weak due to being on "dialisa."

Is "dialisa" like having two of these?

Would anyone here like to guess what rocket scientist in the office said to coworker Jessica, "Wow! That guy blew a .33 BAC? One third of his blood was alcohol!"
Um, no. A BAC of .33 means one third of ONE PERCENT of his blood was alcohol. A very high BAC, but not remotely the same.
And no, not the midget perv. He was a biology major.

I thought it was more like having a girl friend named Lisa and calling her on the phone. (You know, like you used to do on a rotary phone.)

At least that argument didn't get presented to a jury. The defense attorney in me would be high jumping up to the beach to call for a mistrial.

LOL Such an unfortunate typo.
Bench. Bench. Bench.
The N and the A are nowhere near each other on the keyboard. I wonder how I made that typo?

Victim: "Defendant called me a snitch!"
Defendant: "I didn't call him a SNITCH, I called him a BITCH!"

Heard during felony assault trial:
Attorney (to defendant accused of assaulting his ex): "What were you wearing?"
Defendant: "A wife-beater."
Court reporter visibly chuckles.
(True story. The court reporter here is my cousin.)

Because nothing says "i take my court appearance seriously' like wearing a 'beater'.

Pro tip: when you are in court to support a defendant, it isn't good practice, unless you like being in the cell with said defendant, to call the Commonwealth's witness a "snitching a**hole." In open court. Loud enough for the prosecutor to hear it clearly and the bailiff to point out the transgressor.
