Real Life Stories of Lawyers’ Dumbest Clients

Why is the Rum Gone?

Doing a trial for client in a circuit court about an hour outside of the city I operate in. Client decides to get a cab out there and tells the driver they’ll pay them when they arrive.

Client arrives in this community and gets the driver to stop at local convenience store across the street from the courthouse.

Client proceeds to attempt to steal five 26 ounce bottles of rum and is promptly arrested and taken into custody. Trial is postponed as we spend the day (unsuccessfully) applying for bail.
