Opening remarks

Date: Thursday, May 4, 1995 • Utterances: 7
Judge Ito briefly organizes counsel before bringing in the jury, confirming the prosecution's readiness to proceed with their next witness. The exchange is perfunctory, with Clark giving an uncertain 'I believe' when asked if their next witness is available.

All right, counsel. Let's get organized here. Mr. Goldberg, are you ready to go?

Back on the record. All parties are present. Let's have the jury, please. And, Miss Clark, Mr. Darden, you have your next witness available?

How much longer do you have?

Do you have your next witness available?

I believe.

I believe.
Notably uncertain response when asked if the prosecution's next witness is ready — suggests possible scheduling or witness availability issues.

Notable Exchanges (1)

Lance A. ItoMarcia Clark
Ito asks twice whether the prosecution has their next witness available — first redirecting the question from Darden to Clark — and receives only a tepid 'I believe' in response.
