* BizarreGamblingWinnings: In one story arc, the judge and his wife go to a casino and win the jackpot at a slot machine, but after heading home they get robbed. The thief not just takes their money, but also the Judge's toga. The thief is eventually caught in the same casino, where he has already gambled away the stolen money again. But he had more luck when betting the toga, as he somehow won six new togas, which the Judge can have now.

* MistakenIdentity: One comic, a criminal about to go on trial mistook the prosecuter for the lawyer, and asked him not to say anything about "that corpse in the concrete mixer" or "that [[SwissBankAccount secret bank account in Switserland]]". Needless to say, the man suffered a massive OhCrap moment when he realized his mistake. The Prosecutor even pointed out that this is why they all wear the same toga's.

* NapInducingSpeak: One comic, the Lawyer practiced his speech in front of the mirror. Then his ''own reflection'' fell asleep, much to his dismay.
