Summary

This court transcript from August 10, 2022, details a legal argument regarding the defense's request to introduce a new, 81-year-old witness. The defense attorney, Mr. Everdell, claims the witness is crucial for testifying about property records to challenge the timeline of events described by someone named Kate. The opposing counsel, Ms. Comey, objects, arguing that the late introduction constitutes a delayed disclosure and is prejudicial to her side.

defense case. We noted early last week that we were going to
rest. We rested on Friday. They then had five full days,
including three business days, to prepare. So we would object
to holding the case over to Monday for a new witness.
MR. EVERDELL: This is a witness that is
extraordinarily relevant and sometimes things develop during
trial and we need to get witnesses to address issues that come
up at trial. We were able to find this person and he's willing
to come, even those he's 81, because he wants to come and
provide this testimony if it's required.
This is extraordinarily relevant, especially with the
issue that came up with the property records and the issue
raised to the Court. He can directly speak to that issue. His
testimony is relevant for a critical issue in this case, which
is whether or not this -- the events that Kate described could
have even taken place at the time they took place, which she
alleges they took place in, and he should be heard.
MS. COMEY: Your Honor, I just note this is the
defense's third bite of this particular apple and it emphasizes
the prejudice to us of delayed disclosure. We will have no
opportunity to investigate further at this point.
THE COURT: I mean, what we talked about yesterday was
inclusion of documents that show ownership; right?
MR. EVERDELL: That's correct, your Honor.
THE COURT: And I think I said those could come in.
