Title: Judicious decision Post by: Rhea Thomas on July 29, 2009, 01:50:52 AM Taking his seat in his chambers, the judge faced the opposing lawyers, Santa and Banta.
"So," he said, "I have been presented, by both of you, with a bribe." Both, Santa and Banta squirmed uncomfortably. "You, advocate Santa, gave me Rs 60,000. And you, advocate Banta, gave me Rs 50,000." The judge reached into his pocket and pulled out a check. He handed it to Santa, and stated, "Now then, I'm returning Rs 10,000, and we're going to decide this case strictly on its merits." |
