An attorney passed on and found himself in heaven,
but not at all happy with his accommodations. He
complained to St. Peter, who told him that his
only recourse was to appeal his assignment. The
attorney immediately advised that he intended to
appeal, but was then told that he would be waiting
at least three years before his appeal could be
heard.

The attorney protested that a three year wait was
unconscionable, but his words fell on deaf ears.
The lawyer was then approached by the devil, who
told him that he would be able to arrange an
appeal to be heard in a few days, if the attorney
was willing to change venue to Hell.

When the attorney asked why appeals could be heard
so much sooner in Hell, he was told, "We have all
of the judges."
