I'm going to respond 9 to that the same way I've responded to most of your 10 other questions here today, which is, I intend to 11 respond to all relevant questions regarding this 12 lawsuit; however, at the present time, my attorneys 13 have counseled me that I cannot provide answers to 14 any questions relevant to the lawsuit.

I 25 must accept their advice or risk losing my 6th 0181 1 Amendment right to effective representation; 2 therefore, I must assert my federal constitutional 3 rights as guaranteed by the 5th, 6th and 14th 4 Amendment to the United States Constitution. 5 BY MR.

Do you agree or disagree with 17 that? 18 MR.

I may be done. 11 Do you know a Dr. Kaku, K-A-K-U? 12 A. I intend to respond to all relevant questions 13 regarding this lawsuit; however, at the present time, my 14 attorneys have counseled me I cannot provide answers to 15 any questions that may be relevant. I must accept this 16 advice or risk losing my 6th right to effective 17 representation. Accordingly, I assert my federal 18 constitutional rights as guaranteed by the 5th, 6th and 19 14th Amendment to the United States Constitution. 20 MR. PIKE: Can you hold on one second? 21 MR. KUVIN: I'm almost done. 22 MR. PIKE: No, no. We're not going anywhere. 23 MR. KUVIN: Okay. 24 MR. PIKE: Okay. 25 0247 1 MR. KUVIN: Okay. All right, I appreciate 2 your patience. That's all the questions that I 3 have right now. I know that Mr. Goldberger needs 4 to deal with an issue right now with Ms. Ezell 5 regarding any further questions. 6 MR. GOLDBERGER: I think we clarified that. 7 Ms. Ezell, are you there? 8 MS. EZELL: I'm here. 9 MR. GOLDBERGER: Yeah. You had a discussion 10 with Bob Critton already concerning the question 11 you raised with me earlier, right? 12 MS. EZELL: Yes, I did, and I don't have any 13 questions. 14 MR. PIKE: Ms. Ezell, this is Michael Pike. I 15 don't know what your conversation was with Bob, but 16 did you cross notice this deposition? 17 MS. EZELL: No, I did not. 18 MR. PIKE: So what is your purpose of being 19 here? 20 My position is that these are closed 21 proceedings and your client, your client did not 22 cross notice this deposition and/or your clients. 23 So what is your purpose of sitting in on this 24 deposition? 25 MS. EZELL: Well, I received a notice of it, 0248 1 and I just thought I would listen to it while I was 2 doing some other work. And I don't know why it 3 would be a closed proceeding. EFTA01158619 4 MR. PIKE: Discovery proceedings are closed if 5 it's a pre-trial discovery, ma'am, it's not a court 6 proceeding. 7 Nonetheless, do you have any questions for the 8 witness? 9 MS. EZELL: No, I don't. 10 MR. PIKE: And Ms. Holmes, who are you here on 11 behalf of? Which clients? 12 MS. HOLMES: III. and III. 13 MR. PIKE: Are you also here on behalf of Jane 14 Doe in the case 80893? 15 MS. HOLMES: I believe so, yes. 16 MR. PIKE: Do you have any questions for the 17 witness? 18 MS. HOLMES: No, I do not. 19 MR. GOLDBERGER: Katherine, we're going to 20 end. Do you want me to disconnect you now? 21 MS. EZELL: Yes, thanks. 22 MR. GOLDBERGER: Okay. 23 THE VIDEOGRAPHER: Conclude the deposition and 24 go off the record at 3:00 -- 25 MR. PIKE: Wait one second. 0249 1 MR. KUVIN: Oh, wait. 2 MR. GOLDBERGER: He's just going to read. 3 MR. PIKE: You didn't give the witness a 4 chance to read or waive and he'll read. 5 THE VIDEOGRAPHER: Conclude the deposition and 6 go off the record at 3:48.
