Dan's Boss - S3-E7

Corrected entry: Approximately seven and a half minutes into the episode, Dan's new boss, Vincent, corrects Christine on a precedent she cited, then says it was overturned "On August 17, 1977. I believe it was a Thursday." Harry jokes, "It was a Tuesday." According to The World Almanac and Book of Facts, it was actually a Wednesday.

Correction: It's entirely possible that he was just mistaken, not necessarily a mistake on the researchers' behalf. Also, as you've pointed out, Harry was making a joke...

A Day in the Life - S4-E15

Question: I'm not familiar with the law so if someone could answer two questions I would be very thankful. 1. In the very last case, the defendant discovers that anyone not arraigned before midnight is set free which causes him to waive the right to refuse the reading of the information. What exactly does this mean? 2. Dan immediately starts reading off the list of information getting the case turned over to a grand jury. How can Dan reading the information get the case turned over to a grand jury if the defendant waived the rights?

Answer: The jails are overcrowded, so any petty offenders whose case isn't heard by midnight will be let go. The defendant wants the details of his case read (Instead of just the typical summary of the case that Mack gives Harry) because he knows it'll take a while and run out the clock on the midnight deadline, also sparing him the grand jury trial. Dan speed-recites the document quickly enough for Harry to rule on the case and bang his gavel just at the stroke of midnight.
