My attorney stressed the value of, "I can not recall at this time."

The primary "witnesses" on the other side, couldn't recall going to prison, or what crimes that he had served time for. (I guess our attorneys went to the same school) That was when the attorney produced his criminal record on what looked like a scroll. It was hilarious. Within one half hour, the case was settled. "To the full satisfaction of all parties."
