MR. SCAAOLA:

THE COURT:
I think that's
the ben
way to do
it.
And you'll
individually
question oaeh of the
panel after I have introduced everyone, after I've
had the opportunity to make than as comfortable as
possible and to explain what we're doing and why --
not why we're doing it,
beeiu➢0 I don't want to
hint at anything -- some nay recognize the vane
right off the bat -- but indicate to then that we
have agreed that we will question each of you
individually
so as to find out only preliminary
information concerning the matter at hand, and
leave it pretty much at that.
And then we'll go over with then if they have
any knowledge of Mr. Edwards, Hr. Epstein or the
Rothstein natter.
And I think that's the better
way to do it.
Obviously, the reason for my doing it,
even
though it has not cone under attack or objection,
is because I don't want the entire 100 people to be
tainted by one person spouting somothing that nay
be of the nature that could arise here.
So to
avoid that operation -- and, you know, it
should ba

rest of the week.
Thank you again to our courtroom

personnel. We'll be in recess.
