A judge was hearing a drink-driving case but the defendant, who had a history of driving under the influence, demanded trial by jury. It was nearly four o'clock in the afternoon and getting a jury would take some time, so the judge called a recess and went out in the hall to recruit anyone available for jury duty. In the main lobby, he found a dozen lawyers and told them that they were to be the jury. The lawyers thought this would be a novel experience and followed the judge back into the courtroom. The prosecution and defence cases were heard in little over twenty minutes, and it was obvious that the defendant was guilty. The jurors retired to their room, and the judge, thinking that they would return with their verdict in a matter of minutes, prepared to go home. But after three days and nights, the jury of lawyers was still out. The judge was furious and eventually sent the bailiff into the jury room to find out what was delaying the verdict. When the bailiff returned, the judge said impatiently: "Well, have they reached a verdict yet?" The bailiff shook his head and said: "Verdict? They're still arguing over who should be foreman!"
