TRIAL

▲ Day 3 of 167

Date: Friday, January 13, 1995 • Utterances: 6

An extremely brief administrative session that simply reconvenes the court and immediately stalls waiting for Darden to return. The only substantive topic is a planned evidence presentation program system, which cannot be addressed because the attorney who handled it (Hodgman) is absent and Clark had no opportunity to confer with him. The session ends before any motion argument begins.

# 1 THE COURT:

BACK ON THE RECORD IN THE SIMPSON MATTER. HE'S AGAIN PRESENT WITH HIS COUNSEL, PEOPLE ARE REPRESENTED. THE MATTER IS HERE ON THE PEOPLE'S MOTION IN LIMINE. HOWEVER, WE'RE WAITING FOR MR. DARDEN TO REAPPEAR. COUNSEL, ANY OTHER COMMENTS REGARDING THE EVIDENCE PRESENTATION PROGRAM SYSTEM THAT WE'RE GOING TO BE SETTING UP TOMORROW MORNING?

# 2 MS. CLARK:

YOUR HONOR, THE PEOPLE ARE UNABLE TO ADDRESS THAT. MR. HODGMAN, WHO WAS PRESENT --

# 3 THE COURT:

I WONDER IF HE LEFT YOU WITH ANY COMMENTS OR ANY FINAL WORD.

# 4 MS. CLARK:

WE HAD NO OPPORTUNITY TO COMMUNICATE BECAUSE WE HAD TO ATTEND ANOTHER APPOINTMENT THAT I BELIEVE MR. DOUGLAS WAS AT AS WELL. SO WE ARE NOT PREPARED TO ADDRESS THAT.

# 5 THE COURT:

HOW ABOUT IF YOU GIVE MR. DARDEN'S OFFICE A CALL AND ASK HIM TO JOIN US. ALL RIGHT. MR. SHAPIRO, MS. LEWIS, WOULD YOU APPROACH FOR A MOMENT, PLEASE.

# 6 MR. COCHRAN:

MAY I APPROACH?
