I'm just asking a question, I'm not putting a date on it. 4 MR. SCHECTMAN: Judge, it would be helpful if we had a 5 date. 6 Q. I don't know the answer so I'm going to ask the broad 7 question. 8 A. Okay. 9 Q. At the time, around the time before the verdict came in -- 10 A. Okay, that's helpful. 11 Q. Do you know whether Ms. Edelstein asked to see the 12 suspension opinion? 13 A. I don't think that she did, but I don't know one way or the 14 other. She certainly didn't in the conversation on Foley 15 Square that we've been talking about. 16 Q. You do know, don't you, though, that on May 12th, Ms. 17 Trzaskoma told not the Court about the suspension issue but 18 Mr. Schoeman and Mr. Berke, correct? 19 MR. SCHECTMAN: Judge, I object. I don't think the 20 date is accurate. I think it's leading. I mean, I don't 21 object to much leading, but the date's not accurate. 22 MS. DAVIS: Your Honor if I might, 611(c) allows us to 23 lead with a witness identified as an adverse party. 24 THE COURT: He's not objecting to leading. He's 25 objecting to leading with an erroneous assumption or statement SOUTHERN DISTRICT REPORTERS, P.C.
