“Is she in court today?” Judge Cook asked.
“Yes, right over there.“ Marie pointed at a young woman in a grey dress.
The prosecutor then argued, “My Lord, the prosecution did not receive prior notice of this evidence. I urge the court to adjourn the trial for Ms Martin while we authenticate the document.”
Judge Cook calmly replied, “Authentication goes without saying, prosecutor. But I won’t grant an adjournment. Since this document only questions the validity of the audits, the trial can move on to the corruption charges against Martin on goverment projects.”
Mr Clark argued, “Mr Lord, every eaming and expenditure made by my client will be reflected by the audits. If that is put into question, shouldn’t the prosecution’s charges with regards to government projects be put on hold as well?”
Judge Cook’s face was unperturbed when he replied, “No, Mr Clark. You very well know the evidence for the government project bribery is not just in the form of audits but also written testimonies from multiple witnesses.”
“But those witnesses aren’t present in court today to be examined, my Lord.” Mr Clark made one last attempt to get his client off the stand.
“Looks like we only have your client to question on the matter for today, Mr Clark.” Judge Cook decided.
Mr Clark knew better than to argue further with the hard-headed and hot-tempered Judge Cook. He didn’t want to anger the old man for fear of a detrimental outcome for all his clients.
Marie was shocked that the judge wanted to skip right to the issue on government projects first. She did not prepare for this! She thought, if she were lucky, the court would believe the sheet of paper she handed t o him, and that it would be admitted as valid evidence. In this best case scenario, Belle Price would be called to the stand to verify the audits they fabricated together in the past week.
Even if she got unlucky and the document had to be authenticated, Marie thought she’d get an adjournment. But she was denied even this!
