    Lawyer: "Doctor, before you performed the autopsy, did you check for a pulse?" Witness: "No." Lawyer: "Did you check for blood pressure?" Witness: "No." Lawyer: "Did you check for breathing?" Witness: "No." Lawyer: "So, then it is possible that the patient was alive when you began the autopsy?" Witness: "No." Lawyer: "How can you be so sure, Doctor?" Witness: "Because his brain was sitting on my desk in a jar." Lawyer: "But could the patient have still been alive nevertheless?" Witness: "Yes, it is possible that he could have been alive and practicing law somewhere."

    * Lawyer: "Do you know how far pregnant you are now?" * Witness: "I'll be three months on November 8." * Lawyer: "Apparently, then, the date of conception was August 8?" * Witness: "Yes." * Lawyer: "What were you doing at that time?" Funny!!!

    While this is hilarious, I do harbour some doubts as to whether or not this is legitimate. Either way, it made me laugh and I still don't understand this quotation: "When he went, had you gone and had she, if she wanted to and were able, for the time being excluding all the restraints on her not to go, gone also, would he have brought you, meaning you and she, with him to the station?"

    There is no reason to believe the quotes are real just because it say so. Example: Accused, Defending His Own Case: "Did you get a good look at my face when I took your purse?" An accused criminal cannot question his victim.

    LOL! a lot of courtroom tv and the soap courtroom scenes have questions that are almost equally ridiculous.
