What legal terms *really* mean

Dictionary_3Via Power of Attorneys, I bring you the true meaning of all those fancy shmancy legal terms that we lawyers throw around so often.

Today's term:

Circumstantial evidence

Depending on what side of the case the lawyer is arguing, the same circumstantial evidence can either be 1) a smoking gun proving guilt beyond a shadow of doubt, or 2) a trifling, petty, inconclusive and inconsequential nuisance proving nothing at all.
