A scene from My Cousin Vinny 1992
Judge Haller

I tell you this because I want you to know that when it comes to procedure, I'm not a patient man. I advise your, sir, that when you come into my courtroom, you are to know the letter of the law. I react harshly when you don't.

Vinny

You should.

Judge Haller

Don't think that being from New York, you're getting a special treatment.

Vinny

I shouldn't?

Judge Haller

You won't. You'll be given no leeway whatsoever.

Judge Haller

[Takes a book on Alabama law from his book case]

Now I expect you to know this information when you come into my courtroom.

Judge Haller

[drops the book before Vinny]

You willing to accept those terms?

Vinny

Sure. No problem.

Vinny

[quickly leafs through the book]

Just this? Ha ha.
