Barrister to coroner; Is there any doubt that xxx was still alive when you performed the autopsy on him?
Coronor : 'No'
B: What basis have you for this thinking he was deceased?
C ''His brain was sitting on a jar on my desk''
B: ''Nevertheless I put it to you that there was a possability that he may have made a full recovery and returned to a normal life before you carried out the autopsy''
C: ''I suppose there is a possability that he could have recovered without his brain and returned as a barrister in the coronors court''
