Lawyer Thompson stood up and said, "Your Honor, respected jurors, I represent my client, Mr. Gem Atkinson, in this case. At the same time, if possible, I represent my client in accusing Miss Coral Ruby of defamation."
Coral Ruby became excited all of a sudden, "Why? Why do you want to sue me? I didn't defame him, I didn't. He is the father of my son."
"Order. Order." The judge banged the gavel, then said, "Prosecutor, please maintain order in the court."
Long Ruby gave Coral Ruby a look, and she said: "Your Honor, I'm sorry."
"Defense attorney, please proceed."
Lawyer Thompson said: "Your Honor, I have a few questions for the prosecution."
"Granted."
Lawyer Thompson walked up to Coral Ruby and asked, "Miss Ruby, where were you on the date X, month X, and year X?"
