A Complicated Lawsuit

A young lawyer was defending a wealthy businessman in a complicated lawsuit. Unfortunately, the evidence was against his client, and he feared the worst. So the lawyer asked the senior partner of the law firm if it would be appropriate to send the judge a box of cigars as a bribe. The partner was horrified.

“The judge is an honorable man,” the partner exclaimed. “If you do that, I can guarantee you will lose the case!”

Weeks later the judge ruled in favor of the lawyer’s client. The partner took him to lunch to congratulate him.

“Aren’t you glad you didn’t send those cigars to the judge?”, The partner asked.

“But I did send them,…” Replied the lawyer and continued,… “I just enclosed the complainant’s lawyer’s business card.!”
