    You mean like all trials? What’s the problem with that?

      The problem. The problem is there aren’t enough restrooms in the courthouse to accommodate that number of witnesses. The cost of sewage maintenance alone necessitates a delay for the trial.

          They are just static.

          If you can’t win, cause confusion.

        Even worse, the witness stand can’t accommodate 150 witnesses at the same time!

        /s

        My goodness, does the amount of dumb things you say have no limit?

          If there is a limit, I haven’t found it yet. A judge ruled today that Cheesebro and Powell will be tried together. Explain that. Can the witness stand hold 2 chairs?

            Uh… You do know that the people on trial don’t sit in the witness stand the whole time, right?

        Witnesses don’t have to attend all 4+months of the trial, only days they’re needed/scheduled to attend.
