i guess we'd have to know what he did for a living and what his state of dress was at the time he was testifying. i didn't like that one as much as this one:
Quote:
Attorney: What gear were you in at the moment of the impact?
Witness: Gucci sweats and Reeboks.

and this one:
Quote:
Attorney: What is your date of birth?
Witness: July 18th.
Attorney: What year?
Witness: Every year.

i understand that lawyers have a train of thought and want to elicit a certain response from the person testifying, and they never ask a question that they don't already know the answer to, but ferchrissakes:
Quote:
ATTORNEY: The youngest son, the twenty-year-old, how old is he?
WITNESS: He's twenty, much like your IQ.
but there's more...
Attorney: How old is your son, the one living with you?
Witness: Thirty-eight or thirty-five, I can't remember which.
Attorney: How long has he lived with you?
Witness: Forty-five years.
a snicker at a cop...
Lawyer: "And you check your radar unit frequently?"
Officer: "Yes, I do."
Lawyer: "And was your radar unit functioning correctly at the time you had the plaintiff on radar?"
Officer: "Yes, it was malfunctioning correctly."

no wonder some defendants want new lawyers...
