There are those that believe that the Last Supper was a Passover Seder. There is scant evidence for, and much evidence against this idea. For one thing, if Jesus had just finished his Seder, the Court (Sanhedrin) would not be in session--it did not meet on Sabbaths or Holy days, and never at night; thus, no actions could have been taken against him.
