Hi,
What is the meaning of "a mighty thin case" and " a very close call on the motion" in the following text?
Nesson tried once again to point out to the judge his error of law, he succeeded only in angering him. " one of the ways you prompt me to think about correcting this is by directing a verdict for Beatrice, " the judge told Nesson.
"You really know how to hurt a guy, "said Nesson.
"I'm serious about this, " replied the judge. "The best case against Beatrice is a mighty thin case. It was really close call on the motion for a directed verdict.
Please be informed that I know the meaning of a directed verdict.
Thanks.
