law and disorder

I love reading about law. Even more fun is listening to the law. I may not know a legal definition for tort (do you get them with coffee? or is it with tea? I always forget...), but I do know that listening to people arguing is big fun. At the dinner table, on the airplane, or in front of a courtroom, I'm not too particular. Voyeuristic any? Sure.

But upon reading this, I can't help but get angry.

Mr. Siminovsky urges the judge to take the money and offers to write a check, too. Justice Garson seems to agree and puts the money in his drawer.

A few minutes later, Mr. Siminovsky leaves the office.

"Keep the faith," he tells the judge.

Disputations are fun, but please, my dear gentlepersons, stay within the rules.

PS. I swear this was a Law & Order episode.
