do with what they are in court for: to show that no candidate got over.

room.

That evidence was not objected to, that evidence is before you and we are respectfully.

submitting that what is stated in Paragraph 5 is no different from what is already.

before you about the video documentary.



“All that this witness is adding is that he is.

willing to put his credibility on the line so that if anybody wants to have.

recourse to the video they are entitled to.



“Depending on the cross examination we may indeed come before.

you with an application that that video should be produced in court and played.



Hearing has been adjourned to Monday February 8.



I’ve looked thru 32 paragraphs of Rojo MN and I.
