:55:00
You wanna come in, Paul?
:55:03
You can if you want to,
you know.
:55:06
No thank you, Laura.
:55:08
I'm sorry I had to spoil your fun
over at that place.
:55:14
Good night, Laura.
:55:15
Good night.
:55:43
Hear ye, hear ye, hear ye.
:55:46
The circuit court for the county
of Iron Cliffs is now in session.
:55:51
You can be seated.
:55:57
For those of you I haven't met,
my name is Weaver.
:56:01
I'm from downstate,
and I'm sitting temporarily...
:56:04
while your good Judge Maitland
is recovering from a severe illness.
:56:08
There's no need to dwell
at length upon my methods.
:56:11
One judge is quite like another.
:56:14
The only difference is maybe
in the state of their digestions...
:56:18
or their proclivities
for sleeping on the bench.
:56:21
For myself,
I can digest pig iron.
:56:24
And while I might appear
to doze occasionally...
:56:27
you'll find that
I'm easily awakened...
:56:29
particularly if shaken gently
by a good lawyer...
:56:33
with a nice point of law.
:56:36
We will now take up
the criminal docket.
:56:39
Case number one--
The People v, Clarence Madigan--
:56:43
breaking and entering
in the nighttime.
:56:46
Will the defendant rise
and come forward?
:56:48
That's me, Your Honor.
:56:58
State of Michigan,
court of Iron Cliffs...
