A dishonest defense attorney bribed a man on the jury to hold out for a charge of manslaughter, instead of murder, which the state was attempting to get.

The jury was out for several days before they returned with the manslaughter verdict.

When the lawyer paid the corrupt juror, he asked him if he had a very difficult time convincing the other jurors to see things his way.

"I sure did," the juror replied, "the other eleven wanted to acquit."

Two lawyers, Frank and Harry, meet for a drink. Frank says, "You know what happened? An angel was sent down to compile a list of the dishonest lawyers on earth. Six months later he dragged himself back to Heaven, exhausted. `Believe me,' he told God, `it'd be easier if I just made note of all of the honest lawyers on earth. In fact, I think I could do that in a weekend.' God said, `Fine.' Come Monday morning, the angel turned in his list and God said, `That's terrific. Now I think you should send all the lawyers on this list a note of congratulations.'"Frank pauses and sips his Scotch. Then he says, "There was a postscript to the angel's
note. You know what it was?" Harry says, "No." "Aha! So you didn't get one either!"
