Courtroom Bloopers

Here are some statements, supposedly taken from a book called Disorder in the American Courts, of things people actually said in court, word for word, taken down and now published by court reporters who had the torment of staying calm while these exchanges were actually taking place (these were circulating in the blogosphere a couple years ago, but they're still pretty funny):
