In any event, I'm still unclear what the decision
point is. You have decisions to make as to who to call, but
you're not seeking anything --
MS. MENNINGER: No, your Honor. And if I were to call
her and ask her something outside of the prior consistent
statements, we would brief that to your Honor or bring that up
in advance, we would not just do that. It's just that, as your
Honor has seen, they shaved a substantial amount of their case
off and are not calling a number of witnesses that they
intended to call, and we are assessing who we need to call in
getting those people here and so forth.
So I just, in asking you right this second, what
decision we've made about our case in chief, I can't give your
Honor an answer.
THE COURT: I understand that. I don't think I was
seeking that.
Mr. Rohrbach, you just began by asking whether they
intended to recall Jane. They don't know.
MR. ROHRBACH: Right.
THE COURT: And whether they intend to call Brian,
they don't know.
MR. ROHRBACH: Thank you, your Honor.
The other issue the government wanted to just flag for
the Court is there is a possibility that we'd get to victim 2
by the end of the day today, and I know the Court has --
