Text Quotes
If judges would make their decisions just, they should behold neither plaintiff, defendant, nor pleader, but only the cause itself  (Defendant Quotes) Ask any experienced defense lawyer: the real risks are for an accused person who is innocent. A guilty defendant has many more options available.  (Defendant Quotes) If you’re a prosecutor, and you believe the defendant is guilty, you only talk about ultimate truth, but not intermediate truth. If you’re the defense attorney, you care deeply about intermediate truth, but you tend to neglect ultimate truth.  (Defendant Quotes) The defendant wants to hide the truth because he’s generally guilty. The defense attorney’s job is to make sure the jury does not arrive at that truth.  (Defendant Quotes) Every defendant knows, if endowed with the mental competence for criminal responsibility, that the life he will take by his homicidal behavior is that of a unique person, like himself, and that the person to be killed probably has close associates, ‘survivors,’ who will suffer harms and deprivations from the victim’s death.  (Defendant Quotes) I got the chance to argue my first case in Supreme Court, a criminal case arising in Alabama that involved the right of a defendant to counsel at a critical stage in a capital case before a trial.  (Defendant Quotes) Why should the court impose a judgment in a case in which the SEC alleges a serious securities fraud, but the defendant neither admits nor denies wrongdoing?  (Defendant Quotes) It is an established principle of jurisprudence in all civilized nations that the sovereign cannot be sued in its own courts, or in any other, without its consent and permission; but it may, if it thinks proper, waive this privilege, and permit itself to be made a defendant in a suit by individuals, or by another State.  (Defendant Quotes) I can’t do no literary work for the rest of this year because I’m meditating another lawsuit and looking around for a defendant.  (Defendant Quotes) We are like a judge confronted by a defendant who declines to answer, and we must determine the truth from the circumstantial evidence  (Defendant Quotes) Here we have a situation where a defendant in a case agrees to an interview with Dan Rather. It happened to be not confidential. But it was an interview with Dan Rather  (Defendant Quotes) It is the private opinion of this court that not only is the late defendant sane but that he is the sanest man in this entire jurisdiction  (Defendant Quotes) Why should the court impose a judgment in a case in which the SEC alleges a serious securities fraud, but the defendant neither admits nor denies wrongdoing  (Defendant Quotes) When you come in to court as a plaintiff or as a defendant, it is terribly important that you look up at the bench and feel that that person represents you and will understand you, that that person is reflective of our community and of our society  (Defendant Quotes) It is not enough that we have a guilty defendant. We must have an innocent system as well  (Defendant Quotes) I can’t do no literary work for the rest of this year because I’m meditating another lawsuit and looking around for a defendant  (Defendant Quotes) If you’re a prosecutor, and you believe the defendant is guilty, you only talk about ultimate truth, but not intermediate truth. If you’re the defense attorney, you care deeply about intermediate truth, but you tend to neglect ultimate truth  (Defendant Quotes) The defendant wants to hide the truth because he’s generally guilty. The defense attorney’s job is to make sure the jury does not arrive at that truth  (Defendant Quotes) A jury is more apt to be unbiased and independent than a court, but they very seldom stand up against strong public clamor. Judges naturally believe the defendant is guilty  (Defendant Quotes) The canvas is a court where the artist is prosecutor, defendant, jury and judge. Art without a trial disappears at a glance  (Defendant Quotes) From the very beginning, our state and national constitutions and laws have laid great emphasis on procedural and substantive safeguards designed to assure fair trials before impartial tribunals in which every defendant stands equal before the law. This noble ideal cannot be realized if the poor man charged with crime has to face his accusers without a lawyer to assist him  (Defendant Quotes) To exclude all jurors who would be in the slightest way effected by the prospect of the death penalty would be to deprive the defendant of the impartial jury to which he or she is entitled under the law  (Defendant Quotes) As one who was a prosecutor for many years, I can tell you that having a tape recording of interrogations would help everybody. It would make clear if there had been improper pressure exerted on a defendant or witness, and it would also protect the interrogating officer from false claims that such pressure had been brought to bear  (Defendant Quotes) I’m sure I took some licks at the system, and at trials and lawyers in general. I’ve seen enough of them for so many years both as a cop and a defendant in defamation cases  (Defendant Quotes) To force a lawyer on a defendant can only lead him to believe that the law contrives against him  (Defendant Quotes) A strenuous soul hates cheap success. It is the ardor of the assailant that makes the vigor of the defendant  (Defendant Quotes)
