If I ever become a trial lawyer (fingers crossed) I won’t yell OBJECTION in the courtroom. Instead I will stand up on the table, point my finger, and scream TREACHERY!

In high school, we convinced a rookie on the mock trial team to stand up during practice and loudly announce “OBJECTION, YOUR HONOR: FORNICATION!” I think the judge almost fell out of his chair

A guy representing himself in a trial I was in made a motion to allow him to go home and take a nap. The judge denied it but I almost wish I had joined the motion.

I wanted to be a civil service attorney and instead I do trial work. I hate trials.

Don't forget such gems as CALUMNY, MENDACITY, DISSIMULATION and OBLOQUY!
