Summary

This document is a court transcript from August 10, 2022, detailing the cross-examination of a witness named Flatley. The testimony clarifies that the 'author' metadata in a Microsoft Word document is derived from the user profile that set up the software, not necessarily the individual creating a specific file. An example is cited where the computer account name was 'Ghislaine' and the corresponding author name in Word was 'gmax'.

Flatley - cross
1 A. Yes, that's correct.
2 Q. And so, when you examined these particular documents, you
3 were able to tell, and I think you told the jury about the user
4 that was associated with the computer, you testified was the
5 author; correct?
6 A. Correct.
7 Q. Because that's the piece of information that's contained in
8 the properties, author; right?
9 A. That's correct.
10 Q. An author is just drawn from the person who set up the
11 computer in the first place; right?
12 A. No. In that particular instance, the author is another
13 user inputtable field from Microsoft Word when you start using
14 it and it's saved to your account. So, where the account name
15 was Ghislaine, the author name was gmax.
16 Q. So when you first set up Word, you put in your name because
17 you're the person who's installing the Word; right?
18 A. Correct.
19 Q. And then when you create documents from that Word program,
20 it auto populates the name of the author from the person who
21 set it up; right?
22 A. That's correct.
23 Q. It doesn't actually mean a particular person is sitting in
24 front of Word on a particular time when they say new document;
25 right?
