Customer Reviews
Average Rating: 
Rating:  - awful
I kept getting emails about funny anecdotes about things that happened in court attributed to "disorder in the court". This can't be the same book. There was nothing funny in it.
Rating: - Norman Cousins should've used this book for therapy!
My husband is eighty-seven and faced with many physical problems... AND depression. A friend sent an e-mail containing excerpts from this book. Laurits laughed like he hadn't in months, so I located this book and bought it for him. He's read it over and over.
A great book for a person who's down in the dumps... or your favorite lawyer! It makes a nice little gift for ANYONE!
Rating: - Hilarious
My cousin, who is an attorney, loves this book. She said that she can't put it down. Makes her look forward to her job. Great.
Rating: - A good little book.
What a great book for carrying with you on visits and reading it to a shut-in or sharing it with a bunch of friends to perk things up on a cold winter's evening.
Rating: - Goofy Things Said in Court
The book is a collection of things people actually said in court, word for word, taken down by court reporters. It must be tough to record some of these exchanges without laughing out loud. Fun reading for anyone, but if you have a friend who's a lawyer or a judge, it might be the perfect gift for them.
Here are some samples from the book:
ATTORNEY: What is your date of birth?
WITNESS: July 18th.
ATTORNEY: What year?
WITNESS: Every year.
