Boggled

Client: Well, are they going to dismiss the case?

Me: No, no, I don't think so. They want a trial or a plea.

Client: There's no way that they're going to win -- they know that they don't have any evidence. I need to get home.

Me: Well, what concerns me is that the dude is going to say that you pointed a gun in his face and took his stuff. And, if we lose, the Judge is probably going to give you 15 to serve. That's 15 years to the door -- no parole, no good time.

Client: We'll just have to crank it up.

Luckily, he had the sense to take the deal. Eventually.
