individual,

Mine experience is from the many your's apparently from one, and he may well have been outstanding in the practice of his area of law, that he was a dill in other respects proves nothing.

Opinion,

The only times* that I have appeared in Court is as a witness, most times as an Expert Witness (Expert: 'X' for the unknown quality, 'spert' (sic) for a drip under pressure).

*
Other than one occasion when I was one of a number of defendants and we all copped a One pound fine and no costs.

individua,

That's good to hear. Did you buy the judge a bottle of gin. They like gin. And I mean they like lots of gin!

Is Mise,
My only time in a Court was before a Magistrate when the pile of crap who broke into my home & stole about $35,000 worth of gear was told to behave himself in future. I was informed that the crap wouldn't have the means to compensate me as the Police requested !
As for the judge I met, I haven't heard of any outstanding contributions to better our society !

Issy, you know what they say about an "EXPERT".... "X" is an undefined quantity... and a "SPURT" is a drip under pressure. Are you really an "XSPURT"

Indy, you should have had our resident Dennis Denuto as your defence lawyer. A colossus among the Forums legal elite, our very own man of letters Shadow Minister QC KCMG DILL. Shadow would have got you off with a minimum of 20 years whilst invoking the finer points of the Magna Carta in your defence.

BTW; Does anyone know what happened to ALTRAV. Don't tell me he "spat the dummy" because he got another one of his posts deleted. Then again being Italian, and possible a decedent of the il Duce, he may be holidaying in a hospital bed in northern Italy. Who Knows?

Paul,

I managed to come up with two of my own;

Those with no retort resort to ridicule !
Forgetting is forgivable, not thinking is not !

Feel free to plagiarise to your hearts content !
