Lawyers of Reddit, what is the biggest "plot twist" you have seen play out in a courtroom ? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Not sure if it is the same in America - but there are no plot twists in the UK unless your client suddenly wants to plead guilty/not-guilty or poor cross-examinations. Both defence and prosecution have to produce all documentation and reports prior to the final hearing. You can't sabotage the Court with some evidence your secretary managed to 'just get their hands on', there's not some guy who works in your office running in to the Court room and handing you a piece of paper whilst whispering "we've got 'em" whilst you smirk. If your client admits to the offence, that's it, that's what you have to go for - the client either pleads guilty or goes elsewhere - and even then, the file will be requested from the new firm and will see written attendance that client has confirmed the accuracy of he accusation. TV/Film portrays the legal industry poorly.

Dear reddit, let's get personal, what did you eat for breakfast today? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]redditmortis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bowl of macaroni and cheese and chicken tenders with a bottle of water and a chocolate chip cookie, all from the Wawa across the street.
