Quotes
-
Ann Kelsey : Your Honor, before you bring in the jurors, I would like to renew my motion for severance.
Judge Olga Winbush : On what grounds?
Ann Kelsey : On the grounds that the presence of his co-defendant will result in a confusion on the issues, and will materially prejudice my client's right to a fair trial.
Russ Snyder : You don't like my smell Etter?
Porter Dillon : Your Honor, we share counsel's concern that Humboldt Logging's impeccable reputation for rape and pillage of redwoods could be sullied by association with a concerned environmentalist.
Ann Kelsey : This is exactly the kind of mudslinging I anticipate, Your Honor.
Judge Olga Winbush : Mr. Dillon, why are you on your feet in the middle of Ms. Kelsey's motion?
Porter Dillon : Because I agree. My client shouldn't be here now or later. I renew my motion to dismiss the charges against my client. There's no evidence to suggest...
Judge Olga Winbush : Let's hear the evidence, Mr. Dillon. Motion denied. As to your motion, this gentleman claims that your client, and Mr. Dillon's client, shared in the acts that led to his injury. I don't think finger pointing will confuse the jury. Blame is the issue. Motion denied.
