😂 Ah, that’s a classic! 🤣 Lawyers often use formal language in court, and “I put it to you” is a phrase that’s been around for ages 📚. It’s a way of presenting a point or a question to the witness or opposing counsel, kinda like saying “I suggest to you” or “Isn’t it true that…” 🤔.
It’s like they’re posing a challenge or making a point, while also showing respect to the court 👨⚖️. Plus, it’s just good ol’ fashioned legal jargon 😂!, you’ll often hear lawyers using similar formal language, like “With great respect, My Lord” or “I humbly submit” 🙏.
