Summary

This document is a court transcript from January 15, 2025, detailing a cross-examination of a witness named Rocchio. The questioning focuses on the conclusion and methodology of a study. The judge interrupts the proceedings to call for a 30-minute lunch recess and advises the attorney, Mr. Pagliuca, to focus his questioning more on underlying 'Daubert questions' rather than points for a jury to make better use of the court's time.

Key Quotes (2)

"I do want to encourage you, Mr. Pagliuca, to focus your cross less on what you might do in front of a jury -- because you are ably demonstrating to me so far that the points you made in your papers are cross-examination points -- so to the extent there are any of the opinions you want to focus on the underlying Daubert questions -- and you did a little bit at the end here -- the time would be much more effectively used."

Rocchio - Cross
1 conclusion of the study, no.
2 Q. Well, are you just saying you ignore the conclusion of the
3 author who did this study because you don't agree with it?
4 A. I'm not saying this is the conclusion. The purpose of the
5 study -- a conclusion generally refers to the concluding
6 comments summarizing the main findings of the study. So this
7 is actually not part of her -- their conclusion. It's part of
8 their rationale for why this particular piece of research is
9 important and needed in the field.
10 Q. So let's go through the methodology of this particular
11 study as well.
12 THE COURT: We'll take about a 20-minute, 30-minute
13 break for lunch. It's 12:55, I think we probably need 30
14 minutes, just logistically, so we'll resume at 1:25.
15 I do want to encourage you, Mr. Pagliuca, to focus
16 your cross less on what you might do in front of a jury --
17 because you are ably demonstrating to me so far that the points
18 you made in your papers are cross-examination points -- so to
19 the extent there are any of the opinions you want to focus on
20 the underlying Daubert questions -- and you did a little bit at
21 the end here -- the time would be much more effectively used.
22 MR. PAGLIUCA: Understood, your Honor.
23 THE COURT: Thank you. We'll resume in 30 minutes.
