I could easily offer expert testimony showing how this could be done with very little effort on the cracker's behalf.

I think Judge Davis was genuinely angry; he thought plaintiffs' counsel should have disclosed the info as soon as they found out about it.<br /><br />But I do think that Reynolds' explanation was completely believable: it was a very minor issue that he heard from Jacobson only in passing.

I don't think Reynolds contemplated the new info even coming up at trial.Ben Sheffnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06477793715765992689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5383512304639632735.post-83372223228125155732009-06-16T23:36:15.077-07:002009-06-16T23:36:15.077-07:00Is there some indication as to why Judge Davis thr...Is there some indication as to why Judge Davis threw a temper tantrum regarding Dr. Jacobson's "external hard drive" testimony? Was this just <i>pour encourager les autres</i> grandstanding, or was he genuinely upset?DensityDucknoreply@blogger.com
