TRIAL

▲ Day 129 of 167

Witness: Dr. John Gerdes
Examiner: George Clarke
Called by: Defense • Date: Friday, August 4, 1995 • Utterances: 5

A brief administrative pause during the cross-examination of Dr. Gerdes. The court confirmed all jurors had viewed exhibit 567, then took a short recess to swap out the projector before Clarke could continue his questioning.

# 1 THE COURT:

All right. Let the record reflect that I believe that is 567--one more, that is 567?

# 2 MR. CLARKE:

Yes.

# 3 THE COURT:

All right. The record should reflect that all the jurors have had the opportunity to view 567. And Mr. Clarke, it is now your request that we do use the projector for the next items?

# 4 MR. CLARKE:

Actually, if could I have about two minutes with a board, then I would like to use the projector.

# 5 THE COURT:

We are missing one of the jurors now, so why don't we take a break right now and Mr.--you've got ten minutes to swap that out. All right. Let me have the jurors step back in the jury room and we are going to change the projector and then we will start up again. Doctor, you can step down.
