'My Lord, as peculiar as it may sound to the judicial ear, my instructing solicitors perceive themselves to owe professional duties to my client. In the back of their mind lurks a fear of professional negligence proceedings in the event that my client's desired outcome was thought to have been compromised by a want of evidence. If it will be of assistance, perhaps my instructing solicitors might be prevailed upon to remove every odd numbered page from the existing bundles, after which, if it please the Court, I can open.'
