Janet Venable : No further questions, your honor.
Roy : ['Roy' emerges] Where the hell do you think you're going?
Janet Venable : Excuse me?
Roy : Hey, you look at me when I'm talkin' to you, bitch!
Judge Miriam Shoat : Mr. Stampler!
Roy : Fuck you, lady! Come here!
[Roy jumps over the witness stand and grabs Janet and punches Marty]
Judge Miriam Shoat : Bailiff!

Judge Miriam Shoat : [to Marty Vail] You are making a mockery of my courtroom and I'm not going to allow it! I suggest you start representing your client and stop representing yourself!

Judge Miriam Shoat : [in her chambers] If you think you're going to my courtroom to wage personal vendettas and settle old scores, you are sorely mistaken! I'm striking Shaughnessy's testimony from the record as irrelevant and I'm holding you in contempt in the amount of ten thousand dollars!
Martin Vail : So... what you're telling me is I can't get a fair trial in your courtroom? You're also in league with Shaughnessy and the entire city counsel at covering all this up?
Judge Miriam Shoat : Be very careful what you say in here, Mr. Vail! You're on dangerous ground here!
Martin Vail : Fine! Do you want me to make that check out to you judge?

Martin Vail : [to Shaughnessy in court] It's confusing to me because I have document here from your office that says last year Michael O'Donnell spoke to the supervisor of that unit over a period of two weeks explaining to him - in graphic detail - of the sexual abuse he suffered at the hands of Archbishop Rushman. Isn't it also true, Mr. State's attorney, that your "friend" Archbishop Rushman was not going to stand trial for any of it? He owed you big time. You must've been very pissed off when he pulled out of the South River construction deal. What happened? He finally said "I can't take it anymore" and you said "no". You and your investors had sixty millions reasons to kill him!
Janet Venable : Objection!
Judge Miriam Shoat : Sustained! You're out of order, Mr. Vail!
Martin Vail : [whispering under his breath] Just like what you and your "associates" did in killing Joey Pinero just yesterday!
John Shaughnessy : [whispering to Vail] You son of a bitch!
