Ray : Don't talk to me; talk to my attorney.

Ray : Friends of yours?
Judge Wexler : I've tried them for murder! Gave them the chair!

Judge Wexler : [wailing] Ohhh...
Peter Venkman : You're next, bubbles.
Judge Wexler : [screams] ALL RIGHT! ALL RIGHT! I rescind the order! Case dismissed!
Louis Tully : Hooray, we won the case!
Judge Wexler : Now do something!

Judge Wexler : [two ghosts in electrics chairs are attacking the court room] The Scolari brothers!
Ray : Friends of yours?
Judge Wexler : I tried them for murder, gave 'em the chair! You've got to do something!
Egon : Why don't you just tell them you don't believe in ghosts?
-
Judge Wexler : [Running from the Scolari Bros. and pounding on the door, then grabs ray by his suit jacket] You gotta do something, help me!
Ray : Don't talk to me, talk to my attorney.
Louis Tully : That's me. My guys are still under a judicial restraining order. That blue thing I got from her, they can be exposing themselves.
Peter Venkman : And you don't want us exposing ourselves.
-
Prosecutor : Objection, Your Honor.
Louis Tully : What?
Prosecutor : He's leading the witness.
Judge Wexler : Sustained!
Louis Tully : Give me a break, we're *both* lawyers.
-
Judge Wexler : [At the Ghostbusters' trial] Before we begin this trial, I want to make one thing very clear: The law does not recognize the existence of ghosts, and I don't believe in them either. So I don't wanna hear a lot of malarkey about goblins, spooks, and demons. We're gonna stick to the facts in this case. Leave the ghost stories to the kiddies, understood?
Winston : Wow. Sounds like a pretty open-minded guy, huh?
Egon : Yeah, they call him "The Hammer."
Ray : What can we do? It's all in the hands of our lawyer now.
Louis Tully : I think you guys are making a big mistake. I do mostly tax law and some probate stuff occasionally. I got my law degree at night school.
Ray : Well, that's fine, Louis. We got arrested at night.
-
Hardemeyer : Look, just put these guys away fast and make sure they go away for a long, long time, okay?
Prosecutor : I don't think it's gonna be hard with this list of charges.
Hardemeyer : Good. Very good.
[to Peter and the Ghostbusters]
Hardemeyer : Violating a judicial restraining order, willful destruction of public property, fraud, malicious mischief...
[chuckles]
Hardemeyer : See you in a couple of years at you first parole hearing.
Peter Venkman : [chuckles] They'll never take us alive.
Judge Wexler : [bangs gavel] All right, all right. Let's get on with it.
-
Judge Wexler : Mr. Tully, do you have any questions for this witness that might have some bearing on this case?
Louis Tully : [to Venkman, on the witness stand] Do I?
Peter Venkman : No, we've helped them out enough already.
-
Judge Wexler : You got to do something!
Egon : Why don't you just tell them you don't believe in ghost?
