Judge: Haven't
I seen you three times this month?
Defendant: Yes, it's my busy season. |
Judge: How
can you say this is your first offense?
Defendant: I used an alias the other times. |
Judge: I can't
understand how your client keeps ending up in prison. He's just a stool pigeon.
Lawyer: He likes to be a jailbird. |
Judge: Is there
any reason I shouldn't send you to jail?
Defendant: Yeah, the place is crawling with criminals. |
Judge: Is there
any reason I shouldn't throw the book at you?
Defendant: Yeah, I stole it the last time I was here. |
Judge: Speeding,
eh? How many times have you been before me?
Speeder: Never, your Honor. I tried to pass you on the road several times but
my car won't go that fast. |
Judge: Stealing
a pair of shoes, eh? Weren't you up before me about a year ago on the same charge?
Crook: Yes, Your Honor. How long do you expect a pair of shoes to last? |
Judge: When
are you going to stay out of jail?
Defendant: When are you going to stop finding me guilty? |
Judge: Why
are you defending yourself?
Defendant: My lawyer is in jail. |
Judge: Why
are you here again?
Defendant: I had to steal to pay the last fine. |
