1 about whether they're going to recall Jane. I just want to
2 make sure I'm understanding --
3 THE COURT: Sounds like that.
4 MS. MENNINGER: That's correct.
5 MR. ROHRBACH: -- defense's position.
6 So I guess we would just repeat, your Honor, that the
7 only issue for which Jane is subject to recall is the issue of
8 the prior consistent statement and not the broader question of
9 her contacts --
10 MS. MENNINGER: If she's had contact with her younger
11 brother, who is under our subpoena, that might be fair game,
12 your Honor. In my mind, she's violated the sequestration
13 order.
14 THE COURT: As I indicated yesterday, before the
15 government withdraw Brian, I thought that was unlikely to be my
16 conclusion. I don't have any different basis for coming to a
17 different conclusion, unless we learn something substantial,
18 but, again, there was no order in place, I don't think. I
19 didn't enter one directing witnesses not to speak to each
20 other. It is certainly not a good practice for reasons that
21 have become apparent. And he didn't come into the courtroom,
22 which is what the text of 6/15 indicates. I hypothesized
23 whether someone giving him a transcript of the proceeding would
24 be, if not a violation of the letter, a violation of the
25 spirit. There is no contention as to that.
