Brackman Vasektimized (1987)

Jimmy Smits: Victor Sifuentes

Quotes 

• Douglas Brackman, Jr. : On to more serious matters. Franklin vs. Washington Pure Water Company. Miss Kelsey, could you illuminate us? I mean, that's what we drink here. There's nothing actually wrong with this stuff, is there?

  Ann Kelsey : Absolutely nothing. After months of discovery, all the plaintiff can come up with is some half-baked theory that sense their own personal well had certain chemicals in it. Those chemicals must have somehow gotten there from Washington Pure Plants which happened to be next door to them and since their visiting daughter drank water from the well during her pregnancy and gave birth to a deaf and blind infant, it must be Washington Pure Water's fault.

  Victor Sifuentes : What's the jury looking?

  Ann Kelsey : Impartial as I can hope for when dealing with something as emotional as a birth defect.

  Victor Sifuentes : Well, from personal experience, lots of luck.

  Douglas Brackman, Jr. : Should we be recommending a quick settlement?

  Leland McKenzie : I'd advised against offering them anything. Not even nuisance value. In the long run, all that does is breathe more nuisance suits. My way of thinking that's bad for our whole profession. Oh, while I have to floor, may I remind you all of the fundraiser this evening for the Los Angeles Lawyers Constitutional Rights Association. Now I realize you all have many pulls on your time and your money and I don't want to exert any undue influence, but this cause; It's dear to me and a show of support would be appreciated. Ambassador Hotel, 7 O'Clock.

  Douglas Brackman, Jr. : We're adjourned.
