Okay.

Gant enters the Police Department Evidence Room with Officer Goodman at 4:20, and around that time, kills him. Gant calls over Edgeworth from the Prosecutor's Office to retrieve irrelevant evidence and plants the body in his car. Edgeworth drives back to the Prosecutor's Office. He arrives at 5:12 and Lana's "murder" occurs at 5:15.

Now.

I believe sometime during the second day of the trial, Ema mentions that the Prosecutor's Office and the Police Department are 30 minutes apart by car.

So wouldn't that mean that it would be (more or less) impossible for Edgeworth to arrive before 5:20, in turn making it impossible for Lana to have "murdered" Goodman at 5:15?

So.

Am I reading too much into this or what? :grey:

Another time typo that turns into a contradiction, for the book. :/

Unless there was magically zero traffic, and Edgeworth took a quick shortcut... I don't know.

Okay here:

Murder occurred at 4:20. From then Gant had 20 minutes to clean up his mess and stuff Goodman into Edgeworth's car. Also he had to call Edgeworth. Still plenty of time.

4:40 Edgeworth enters the Evidence room (this is on the List actually). He takes the screwdriver evidence and leaves, very little time passes (it can't take long to get something then run out of the department). Probably about 2 minutes passed from entering the evidence room to leaving, maybe a bit more depending on how far the Evidence Room is from the entrance of the Police Department.

About 30 mintutes pass, Edgeworth arrives at the underground parking lot at 5:12, not much of a time discrepancy if you ask me.

Ema was probably rounding a bit, not to mention that Edgeworth may have been driving a bit recklessly due to his grumpiness over both his silly award and being called down to the police department for such a pointless reason. :edgy:

I also noticed another small contradiction.

Angel Starr initially calling Goodman a "greenhorn" when later on you find out he was the head investigator in SL-9. Was that supposed to be intentional?

One, Edgeworth has a sports car and is head prosecutor. You think he isn't gonna speed?

Two, she was probably complaining that greenhorn got put in charge of the case :/

But wasn't Edgeworth already at the police station when Gant called him? He should have been there for the King of Prosecutor's award. He didn't have to come all the way from the Proseuctor's office to get the screwdriver.

At least, that's what I thought :B

Wasn't Egdeworth there already for the awards ceremony? So it is entirely possible.
Sorry. I didn't see that it was already posted.
