Don’t wish for a witness like mine.

So my case was slated for hearing on the next adjourned date.

I invited the witness to prep him on the things he should expect and need to follow through our case plan and to keep his answers short simple and striaght to the point.

We painstakingly and extensively went through the witness deposition paragraph through paragraph to explained to him how to answer questions and need for calm.
Under cross examination.

When the time came witness forgot all our discussions and kept opening lope holes for more questions that got him arguing with the my learned friend in the witness box.

I know his going to see this, just know that I am not happy with you I will have to patch what you did to my case which were avoidable.
Thank you all the same.

Law Angle Episode 1

Dariye v. F.R.N. (2015) 10 NWLR (Pt. 1467) 325
The court in this case held that:
Lawyers are engaged to espouse the case of their clients. It is a monopoly and they should bear in mind that like all monopolies, their conducts are subject to strict rules of accountability for adherence to set ethical standards.
They can fight the cause of their clients, but as lawyers they must act within the rules regarding ethical conduct. As a legal practitioner you owe a duty to your client but owe a higher duty to a higher cause - the cause of justice.

This is clear indication that at all times lawyers must understand the case of their client to know when to stop rather than chase the wind from the lower court all the way to the Apex court just to see if he has a chance.
