Law and Disorder: Absurdly Funny Moments from the CourtsCharles M. Sevilla finds comic gems in court transcripts and now brings readers a delightful, all new collection. Starting with a chapter on the defendants (one of whom, when asked his marital status, replies after a long pause, "Adequate") and following with sections on lawyers, experts, witnesses, evidence, and even one called "Malaprops" (DA: The status of the boat has no relevance to this case at all. This is a total fishing expedition). Stories

Charles M. Sevilla finds comic gems in court transcripts--and now brings readers a delightful, all-new collection. Starting with a chapter on the defendants (one of whom, when asked his marital status, replies after a long pause, "Adequate") and following with sections on lawyers, experts, witnesses, evidence, and even one called "Malaprops" (DA: The status of the boat has no relevance to this case at all. This is a total fishing expedition). Stories from Sevilla's previous books have become viral Internet sensations, priming readers for more legal disorder, such as:

Clerk: Do you solemnly swear that the testimony you are about to given in the cause now pending before this court shall be the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help you God?

Witness: Yes, I swear. I'll say anything but the truth, nothing but the truth.

Good budget watch
Color: 2926 Silver Stainless Steel/Black Dial
Good watch for a budget, color is good. The pins holding the link together tend to wear out and fall out. Other than that it worked good.

Nice Watch
Color: 5885 Siver Stainless Steel/hon Dial, Color: 5885 Siver Stainless Steel/hon Dial
Nice watch for the money. I've only had it a week but seems to be keeping good time. From 20 feet away might be mistaken for "Trump Time". The watch design is actually a copy of the Rolex Submariner for a whole lot less money. Several watch companies have copied the Submariner. I removed one link at a time when resizing the band. By the time I got to the final link, the supplied tool wasn't working. I had to remove the final link with a hacksaw and pliers.

DIDN'T LAST LONG
Color: 5885 Gold Stainless Steel/Gold Dial
Bought this in June 2025, and only wore it a few times. Recently noticed the time was "off" and the seconds-hand wasn't moving. I thought it sat too long and needed to be wound up. So, I wound...and wound...and wound. Never met any resistance in the crown during clock-wise winding...just continued to spin freely, and the seconds-hand never moved. It's a pretty-looking time piece, but don't waste your money if you expect it to keep time. 👎

Great watch, terrible resizing tool.
Color: 2926 Silver Stainless Steel/Black Dial
Watch is great, feel heavy, looks beautiful in person. It shines pretty heavily. My main issue is with the resizing tool it comes with. It broke when I tried to use it. Be prepared to buy your own like I did. I can’t say how the fit is yet because I can’t wear it yet. It is not easy to set up.
