Professor: Bob, what can you tell us about the next case?Happy first day of Spring Semester Classes UConn Law!
Bob: I’m sorry but my lawyer forbids me from commenting until after the trial.
P: What?
B: I can’t talk about that case. Until after the trial that is.
P: You can’t talk about a search and seizure case relating to a murder weapon?
B: Right.
P: Because you have a case pending on that topic?
B: Yes.
P: And your lawyer forbids you from commenting?
B: Correct.
P: [Stunned silence.]
P: Okaaaaaay… Ummm… Sally, do you have a case pending on this topic?
Sally: No, my case settled.
