OO Yeah so let me start this thread

Muhammad Ali Jinnah was the founder of Pakistan,a great lawyer by trade.He graduated from Lincoln's Inn at the age of 20 .And was the first Muslim Barrister practicing law with Bombay Bar.there he earned reputation regarding lack of respect for British Empire.
In one incident, a judge kept interrupting Jinnah by saying, "Rubbish!"two or three times. Jinnah eventually responded by saying, "Your honour, nothing but rubbish has passed your mouth all morning".

Barrister Marshall Hall, summing up his defence case to the jury for a pathetic ageing prostitute accused of murder:

"Look at her, gentlemen of the jury. Look at her. God never gave her a chance. Won't you"?

That's tops. I like very much.

Special hugs to you for that little gem

... But where do you find the time?

It took ~1.5 hours to make and set up. Then whenever I find a quote I just shove it in (< 1 minute to publish a post).

I don't go actively searching for quotes!

The most recent quote actually made me laugh. Pretty hard to do at this time of year.

oh, yes ... i really believe that ... admit it moonlightsonata - you're a high court tragic there's nothing wrong with that, i think i am, too

but seriously - great webpage. i especially like the pic of the bench at the top - talk about squashed in - 7 guys in a space clearly designed for no more than 4. intimate, and kind of kinky in a way ... i wish i hadn't seen that quote about viagra on your site ... bad, bad thoughts :O

ML: Good work on the site... I didn't realise you had it... I'm a not-so closet HCA Transcript addict so Ive come across plenty, but have been too lazy to keep them. I should have forwarded them to you.

Dunno if I'll have the time anymore - now that i've finished up at my old job which was where I read a lot of them.

P.S. Exams suck. I am an evidence king but a corporations pauper.
