(Scene: A busy courtroom. It’s lunchtime, and the Hon’ble Judge is rising from his seat, eagerly looking at the clock. Just as he’s about to leave, a lawyer rushes forward.)
Lawyer (hastily): "With Your Lordship’s kind permission, may I request—"
Judge (cutting him off, already halfway to the door): "No."
Lawyer (not giving up): "My Lord, I am mentioning a matter for adjournment!"
Judge (sighing, turning back slightly): "Sir, can I refuse your mentioning?"
Lawyer (pleading): "My Lord, kindly give me a date."
Judge (waving his hand dismissively): "Sir, please accept my denial."
Lawyer (dramatically): "But My Lord, justice delayed is justice denied!"
Judge (raising an eyebrow): "Sir, lunch delayed is lunch denied."
(Courtroom erupts in laughter. The judge exits swiftly. Lawyer stands there, looking defeated but impressed by the judge’s quick wit.)
