This page is a rough draft transcript of a deposition involving the House Oversight Committee (Bates stamp 021933). A witness is being questioned about why they filed a motion accusing Professor Alan Dershowitz without contacting him first to verify facts or ask for refutation. The witness explains that the U.S. Attorney's Office had delayed answering a request for consent for months (dating back to Summer 2014), leading to a court filing on January 21, 2015. The witness begins to explain the decision not to contact Dershowitz as a 'cost benefit situation' before the page ends.
