Sir, – It’s 4.45pm and I’ve just turned on the trial of the doctor charged with the involuntary manslaughter of Michael Jackson. Examination-in-chief of a prosecution witness has just commenced. The local time in Los Angeles? 8.45am.
As a lawyer, I have a trial commencing in the Four Courts in the coming weeks. Earliest start time (for my and every case, regardless of length or complexity)? 10.30am. If you are lucky.
Sums us up really! – Yours, etc,
