True Court Story


An attorney, defending a man accused of burglary, tried this creative defense:

"My client merely inserted his arm into the window and removed a few trifling articles. His arm is not himself, and I fail to see how you can punish the whole individual for an offense committed by his limb."

"Well put" the judge replied. "Using your logic, I sentence the defendant's arm to one year imprisonment. He can accompany the arm or not, as he chooses".

The defendant smiled, and with his attorney's assistance, he detached his artificial limb, laid it on the bench, and walked out.
