Law Humor

By Judge Jerry Buchmeyer

From D'Juanna Parks of Beaumont/Port Arthur (Provost & Umphrey), this excerpt from the deposition of the treating physician of her client, the defendant.

Q. But just based on your knowledge as a physician, some patients you would expect would not have back or neck injuries?

A. Sure.

Q. Okay. And I presume that in your years of practice you have treated a number of patients who are fairly significant collisions, but did not result in a back or neck injury?

A. Have I ever seen the patients?

Q. Yes.

A. No, because if they don't have any injury, they don't come to me.
