"my client merely inserted his arm into the window and removed a few trifling articles. His arm is not himself, and i fail to see how you can punish the whole individual for an offence committed by his limb".
"well put", the judge replied. "using your logic, i sentence the accused's arm to one year imprisonment. He can accompany it or not as he chooses".
The accused smiled. with his lawyer's assistance he detached his artificial limb, laid it on the bench and walked out!
