Lively Case Discussion #560 12/14 - 12/16/2006

[Buckeye]

ANNA:

This information is from California discovery guidelines:

Obtain Testimony from Outside the State.
1. When a witness is located outside the state, the only way to compel him to testify is to take his noticed deposition where he lives pursuant to the procedures of the other state. If you do so, California will permit you to use that deposition at trial just as if it was live testimony. When you do this, or in any case where you take a deposition to preserve evidence, you should consider recording the deposition on videotape. Juries, and judges, are very impatient of extended readings from transcripts. If you do decide to tape the deposition, you must follow the procedures in C.C.P. § 2025(l).

2. Notice/Agreement States
Fourteen jurisdictions have enacted court rules or statutes that allow either a judge or the clerk of court to issue a subpoena based upon only a Notice of Deposition filed in the trial state or an agreement of the parties that the witness shall be deposed. Those states are: Alabama, Delaware, the District of Columbia, Idaho, Minnesota, Montana, New Mexico, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oregon, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Utah


Just flew by to give you this.  Off again....

But they are not witnesses.  They are plaintiffs in one action (phil) and defendents in the other (wrongful death).  Are they not compelled to be present??

Ladies & Gentleman


I feel the need to report to you that I have managed

to trackdown Paulus Van der Sloots' hard to find

3rd brother... I found him hiding in the bushes near

a bicycle rack, at a Mc Donald's @ roughly  4 in the

morning in  Utrecht.


I PRESENT TO YOU


EXHIBIT A:

Can you swear this is not Joran after a couple years in front of a jury, and many fifths under his belt.

[klaasend]

blah, when I read the lawsuit, it states a time frame on the first page of the filing, but I couldn't tell if the number was 30 days or 90 days for a response to be filed.  The text was blurred and it could have been either one.

Almost positive it says 30 days.  I'll make a comparison..hold on.

[blah]

Blah, when I saw this, I had to pass it along to you, especially after our discussion of "collard balls" last week!  

             

[Buckeye]

All I know is that if you are in a traffic accident (and probably at fault), and the other vehicle is a Pepsi or Fed Ex truck, the attornies that show up at the ER, offer their services for free.  Deep pockets bring out some interesting golddiggers.

[klaasend]

30 days to respond

[blah]

30 days to respond

so we should be hearing something by Jan 14th, correct?

[klaasend]

Yes Blah, or sooner

Well, that would probably not happen here, but that would be a clear-cut case of "fault."  This is not.  This is a very different case from a fender-bender-rear-ender in which Mr. Bread Trcuk hit you in the rear and gave you a neck lash.  That is a clear-cut case that any plaintiff or victim should handle himself or herself, because the only winner in that is the lawyer.  You can get more money by dealing one-on-one with mr. Bread Truck.

.
One version of the tape turned up all staticky and hard to understand.  This was the tape that ALE had and claimed was as sent by Skeeters to them but I have to wonder if they didn't do something to their version only and that is why it did not match the hard drive as did the other versions.

Not likely Skeeters would alter it to make it comply with what Deepak wanted to have said and not what he said.  So that leaves only somebody on the receiving end possibly doing so.

Heaven help them if they did in fact alter it  as I suspect someone along the way has done and before it was sent to NFI.  Remember no one has seen the report from NFI, we have only been told what it says, not been allowed to read for ourselves.  That alone is very telling IMHO.

.

I feel a battle of the expert witnesses coming on.  They will testify as to exactly what has been done (or not) to each version of the tapes.

Dunno, no expert here, but I get the feeling that the battle won't really be over the actual content of the 'tapes' but how the info on the tapes were portrayed on the show itself, making it look like the K2's were guilty of something.

The K2's figuring that they haven't been convicted of anything under aruban law, so Dr. Phil was defaming them by suggesting they did something by showing the K2's on his show as if they had done something bad.

[AZLady]

Thanks, Klaas.  That was the section of the documents that I could not read and determine if the number was 3 or 9.  I'm glad it says 30 days or less.  The US courts do not allow this stuff to drag on and on.  They give firm deadlines and get it done.

Jossy said he has a statement signed by Joran saying he had sex with Natalee while she was going in and out of consciousness.

Jossy said he thinks the statute of limitations for rape is five years.

I don't think the statute of limitations will be a problem as we are going to see some action here in the next six months.

Jossy is on CC right now??

[klaasend]

Is Martha MacCullum on that show?  There's a transcript over at FOB with that name.  Hated to bring it over here without knowing what show it was.
