Adjournment

Date: Thursday, April 13, 1995 • Utterances: 8
Judge Ito adjourned the session at 5:50 PM, explaining that court reporters needed to leave to download their floppy disks and catch their train. Dennis Fung, who had been testifying, was ordered to return the following morning at 8:30 AM, with the jury instructed to return at 9:00 AM.
1 (The following proceedings were held in open Court:)
2 THE COURT:

All right. Ladies and gentlemen, I have to let the Court reporters go so they can catch their train and I told them I would let them go at ten minutes to 6:00. Because of our computerized Court reporting system, after they finish the day they then have to take the floppy disks and down load them to the main computer to produce the transcripts everyday and they then have to catch the train, so we are going to take our break right now. Mr. Fung, you can step down. You are ordered to be here tomorrow morning at 8:30. Ladies and gentlemen, we are going to stand in recess until tomorrow morning until nine o'clock as far as the jury is concerned. Please remember all of admonitions. Do not discuss the case amongst yourselves, don't form any opinions about the case, don't conduct any deliberations about the case, don't allow anybody to speak with you about the case. Have a pleasant evening. We will stand in recess until tomorrow morning at nine o'clock. We will stand in recess and counsel can remain to view exhibits before we break.

3 MR. COCHRAN:

Thank you.

4 THE COURT:

Yes.
