All right. The Court has provided counsel with the request for reread by the jury. And counsel have some objections, go ahead and state them.
MR. P. BAKER: Your Honor in terms of the -- I've been looking through the third element that's the direct testimony of Mr. Simpson, on November 25, and I looked at the tentative proposal by the Court Reporter regarding the rereads. There's a couple areas which I think were missed and that was line 35 or page 35 line 22 through 38 line 8, basically is Mr. Simpson--my response regarding his whereabouts, and what I would propose is that the reread be 35 line 22 through 38 line 8, 45 line 9 through 49.
Wait a minute. Page 35 line.
MR. P. BAKER: 22 through 38 line 8, 45 line 9 through 49 line 25, 51 line 5, through 54 line 5,
51 what?
MR. P. BAKER: Line 5 through 54 line 5. And 57 line 9 through 59 line 6. I know the plaintiff's have proposed a great deal more testimony, but I believe this is responsive to the jury's request. As to issue number--as to the read back No. 3.
Now is your request as to the second or third part--second or third request, third request?
MR. P. BAKER: The third request. The second request, I believe, Steve has got that cued up so that the recording tape will start on page 28 on -- start on line 1 and stop on line 25. I was basically trying to do the third request, O.J. Simpson direct testimony 11/25/96.
Yes, we're not clear what is -- what the jury wants to hear there. We've identified that part of Mr. Simpson's testimony on direct that discusss what he did between those time periods and what we have is as follows: Starting with page 15 line 14 through 29 line 7, skipping over to 29 line 10, through 38 line 25 and then picking up again at page 42 line 9 and going out to 99 line 2. Now all of that discusses what Mr. Simpson allegedly did between 9:45 and 11 o'clock p.m.
All right the reporter will read from page 15 line 14 through page 29 line 7 page 29 line 10 through page 38 line 8 and 42 line 9 through 99 line 2.
Yeah Your Honor, the first request on this sheet says Alan Parks direct testimony. Arrival at Rockingham to the end, and that covers pages 8 to 78. The defense wants to include the cross-examination as well, but the jury has not requested the cross-examine.
I'll inquire of the jury whether they want the cross-examination or they want just the direct and they'll get what they ask for, no more no less. What else?
KEY QUOTEItem number 4, the 11/26 J Kelly direct of Mr. Simpson regarding the January 1 incident.
Yes, beginning of page 25.
MR. P. BAKER: We object to that. Mr. Simpson, this lost person you refer to -- that's a double murder, answer no.
Moving on to the last item, 12/3 Cowlings direct, we propose, 103 line 18 through page 154.
Where it's the end of direct, end of testimony.
MR. P. BAKER: That issue doesn't matter.
Okay some clarification with regards to your request. The -- excuse me, the first request, Alan Parks direct testimony from arrival at Rockingham to the end, 11 slash 20 slash 96. Does the jury want only the direct examination testimony or also the cross-examination? JUROR: Just the direct.
Just the direct. All right, the reporter will read back just the direct of that portion. With regard--with regards to O.J. Simpson direct testimony 11 slash 25 slash 96, re his activities between 9:45 and 11 o'clock, the Court discussed the matter with counsel and the Court will be having the reporter read back portions of the testimony that appear to relate to those letters. Now, if after rereading of any portion, or all of the testimony that it--gets read back to you, if you still have a question as to any part that was not read back to you, give me another note on it okay? Then similarly as to the request of 11 slash, 26 J Kelly direct of O.J. Simpson re January 1 incident, I've also directed the reporter to read back certain portions after consulting with the attorneys. And there again, if after hearing the reread, you feel there are additional portions of that that you anticipated having reread that wasn't read to you, confer and give me another note on that. And finally on the last one 12, slash, 3, Al Cowlings' direct testimony re January 1 incident from arrival at Rockingham to the end. Is it the jury's desire to hear the direct testimony only or also the cross-examination? JUROR: Direct only Your Honor.
Direct only. Okay. Reporter directed to give the direct only. Are you ready to proceed?
THE COURT REPORTER: I need to put one disc in here and I'm ready to proceed.
Okay. Go ahead. With regards to the defense request portions, they are included in the portions requested by the plaintiff. So you don't have to read them separately, just read them straight through. That would be 15 line 14 through 29 line 7 line 10 through 38 line 8, and 42 line 9 through 99 line 2. That includes all of the defense request as well.
Make that 29 line 10 through 38 line 25. That would include the defense request as well.
I object to lines 20 through 28 Your Honor. That has nothing to do with what they requested.
KEY QUOTEOverruled. Okay. The rest of your request we read as you wrote it it down, and you'll also hear the recording as you requested. Of Lange-Simpson interview of June 13, 94. Page 28 lines 1 through 25 of the transcript, item 782. Okay, reporter may read Alan Parks direct testimony.
(Reading:) ALLAN PARK, called as a witness on behalf of Plaintiffs, was duly sworn and testified as follows: DIRECT EXAMINATION BY MR. PETROCELLI:
I'll inquire of the jury whether they want the cross-examination or they want just the direct and they'll get what they ask for, no more no less.
I object to lines 20 through 28 Your Honor. That has nothing to do with what they requested.
We'll go to 25. Includes everything everybody request.
Now, if after rereading of any portion, or all of the testimony that it--gets read back to you, if you still have a question as to any part that was not read back to you, give me another note on it okay?
