The situation was highly unfavorable, and Marcel Jefferson immediately realized that it would be difficult to gain any advantage today. He submitted an application to the judge, "Your Honor, the testimony of our witness before and after the court hearing is contradictory. We need time to clarify the facts and request an adjournment to reconvene at a later date!"
"Your Honor, the new witness has already appeared in court!" Mr. Johnson, defending Leon Brown, opposed upon hearing this.
Since the witness had already appeared, it was unreasonable to leave without having said a single piece of testimony.
The judge said, "I allow the defense witness to speak."
Marcel Jefferson had no choice but to sit back down.
Mr. Johnson straightened his clothes, with a curve at the corner of his lips, he stood up, sweeping his gaze over Marcel Jefferson, exhibiting an assured and triumphant demeanor.
"Witness, please tell everyone your name and occupation," he asked.
