"Judicious decision" joke

Taking his seat in his chambers, the judge faced the opposing lawyers, Santa and Banta.
"So," he said, "I have been presented, by both of you, with a bribe."
Both, Santa and Banta squirmed uncomfortably.
"You, advocate Santa, gave me Rs 60, 000. And you, advocate Banta, gave me Rs 50, 000."
The judge reached into his pocket and pulled out a check. He handed it to Santa, and stated, "Now then, I`m returning Rs 10, 000, and we`re going to decide this case strictly on its merits."
