Law Humor

By Judge Jerry Buchmeyer

This contribution is from Roger L. Mandel of Dallas (Stanley, Mandel & Iola):
My partner, Mark H. Iola, was recently getting ready to pick a jury for an asbestos trial in Edwardsville, Madison County, Illinois. When he received the jury panel list, he was rather astonished to find that the very first panel member, a 22-year old single male, had apparently listed his occupation as "FULL TIME STUD."

The case settled before jury selection ended, and Mark naturally introduced himself to this juror, saying that he wanted to meet anyone who could make a living at the occupation that most men would choose if they only had the choice. The juror was quite embarrassed and said that he was, in fact, a "FULL TIME STUDENT."
