: I am looking for the origin of an old legal
adage that goes something like: If you case is strong argue the facts, if your
case is mediocre argue the law, itf your case is weak attack the other side.
:
Assistance would be greatly appriciated
Don't have an origin, but most lawyers
know the cliche as "If the facts are on your side, bang on the facts. If the law
is on your side, bang on the law. If neither the facts nor the law is on your
side, bang on the table."
