Pleas Jokes

Working for a Judge in a common pleas court, I saw many criminal defendants. One man facing drug charges proved unusually helpful.To determine the exact quantity of the illegal substance allegedly sold, the judge asked the prosecutor how many grams there are in an ounce.As both attorneys checked their notes, the defendant, who had not yet entered his plea, proudly announced, "There are 28.3 grams in an ounce, your honor."His attorney advised him to plead guilty.
