Witness in a trial

In a trial, a doctor who had performed the autopsy on the victim was called up to the stand by the prosecuting lawyer. After the doctor swears not to lie, he takes his seat getting ready to answer the lawyer's questions.

**Lawyer:** "Doctor, before you performed the autopsy, did you check for a pulse?"

**Doctor:** "No."

**Lawyer:** "Did you check for blood pressure?"

**Doctor:** "No."

**Lawyer:** "Did you check for breathing?"

**Doctor:** "No."

**Lawyer:** "So, then it is possible that the patient was alive when you began the autopsy?"

**Doctor:** "No."

**Lawyer:** "How can you be so sure, Doctor?"

**Doctor:** "Because his brain was sitting on my desk in a jar."

**Lawyer:** "But could the patient have still been alive nevertheless?"

**Witness:** "Yes, it is possible that he could have been alive and practicing law somewhere."
