◀ Direct examination of Andrea Mazzola (part 2) Direct examination of Thano Peratis ▶

Date: Tuesday, December 10, 1996 • Utterances: 8

Brief administrative exchange about the procedural basis for calling Thano Peratis as the next witness. Blasier cited the wrong code section (776 instead of 767), Petrocelli objected to both, but Fujisaki allowed the examination to proceed under cross-examination rules for both sides.

# 1 MR. PETROCELLI:

Who's next?

# 2 MR. BLASIER:

Under 776 we would call Thano Peratis.

KEY QUOTE

# 3 MR. PETROCELLI:

776 is inapplicable.

# 4 THE COURT:

Sustained.

You may call him as a witness. You may examine him as if he's not in cross, as if in cross examination. It's not a 776.

KEY QUOTE

# 5 MR. BLASIER:

767.

# 6 MR. PETROCELLI:

We also object to 767.

# 7 THE COURT:

You may examine as if in cross-examination. You may do the same.

# 8 MR. PETROCELLI:

Thank you, Your Honor.
