Disorder In the Court

Judge

Will the attorney for the prosecution please rise?
The case must go on. Open your eyes.

Prosecution

I got you now Bill Clinton, and I will send you into space
Because you more than anyone cause America disgrace
When you’re gone this nation will be more like heaven
My finger is on the button. Ten-nine-eight-seven…


Judge (Shouting)

I’m tempted to hit you on the head with my gavel
I don’t want the fabric of order to further unravel

Prosecution:(Yawning)

Go away. I’m not ready to work yet.
And judge, you’ll pay for that threat

Judge

Until that occurs, my eyes shall not weep
And yours should not shut. Why were you asleep?

Prosecution

I watched a Ronald Reagan Marathon in my home
Which inspired me to write a patriotic poem

Judge

Is that the cause of your apparent lack of preparation?

Prosecution

I’m as prepared as I need to be, for your information
But you’re not prepared for what I shall recite –
The brilliant composition that was written last night
I’m proud to live in the US of A
Where those who love Jesus never go astray

Judge

Sounds like you’re trying to preach but it’s a feeble attempt
Call the next witness or of this court you’ll be in contempt

Prosecution (To witness)

Please state your name

Witness

This amazing fellow
Is known to those blessed to know him as Anthony Fratello

Prosecution

How do you know the defendant against whom the charges are immense?

Defense

Objection, your Honor, the question assumes facts not in the evidence

Prosecution

I was informed you know the defendant. Is this true?

Witness

The answer to your question is affirmative since I do

Prosecution

How do you know the defendant, who you say you’ve seen before?

Witness

I used to help him with his laptop, and we live on the same floor

Prosecution

You said that you used to help. Why did that arrangement cease to be?

Witness

I don’t want to talk to him. I’m sure that he doesn’t want to talk to me

Prosecution

Why is that?

Defense

An objection is in order here
The question is ambiguous, confusing, unclear

Judge

Your objection is needlessly repetitious but nevertheless sustained

Prosecution

Why do you feel that your relationship with the defendant is strained?
