1.
Counsel: "All right, I want to take us back to the scene of the bar for a moment again." (The witness starts to leave the stand)
Counsel: "No, you don't have to get up. I just want to take you back there mentally."
2. The young attorney, engaged in her first jury trial, nervously commences her portion of the jury selection:
Counsel: "This is called voir dire, and this is my opportunity to speak with you as jurors. At this point in the trial, I won't have any opportunity to ask you any questions or to have any intercourse with you."
Counsel: "Discourse."
Counsel: "I didn't mean that."
The court: "And we sent them to law school to learn all these words."
District Court Judge John Anderson, Canon City, Colorado
