So You Think Youre Not Guilty Quote
[in court]
Joe McDoakes: ...not guilty.
Judge: I beg your pardon?
Joe McDoakes: I said I'm not guilty, your honor.
Judge: You realize that by pleading guilty and paying two dollars, the case will be dismissed?
Joe McDoakes: I don't want it dismissed. I'm not guilty. What kind of a city is this anyhow? You got signals that go up and down and up and down and up and down.
Judge: Do you waive a trial by jury?
Joe McDoakes: I waive nothing. I want the best jury in the country. I wouldn't trust my fate in the hands of any one servant of this this corrupted city.
Judge: All right. Jury trial, date to be set. Defendant pleads not guilty. You're free to go now, Mr. McDoakes.
