Judicial Justice?

"The Will"*

*A man goes to his lawyer and says, "I would like
to make a will but I don't know exactly how to go about it."

The lawyer says, "Don't worry, leave it all to me."

The man looks somewhat upset ... "Well I knew
you were going to take the biggest slice - but
I'd like to leave a little to my children, too."

"Judicial Justice?"*

*'At the height of a political corruption trial, the
prosecuting attorney attacked a witness.

"Isn't it true," he bellowed, "that you accepted
five thousand dollars to compromise this case?"

The witness stared out the window, as though he
hadn't heard the question.

"Isn't it true that you accepted five thousand dollars
to compromise his case?" the lawyer repeated. The
witness still did not respond.

Finally, the judge leaned over and said, "Sir, please answer the question."

"Oh," the startled witness replied, "I thought he was talking to you."
