Haytham,
  Attached is the transcript from Owen's deposition, as we discussed on the phone.  I've made it searchable and able to copy/paste from it in case we need to select portions during trial.  I can do the same with the 32 transcript or any other discovery, if you want.  I've found it makes prepping questions easier when you can search the PDF for what you want instead of having to flip pages.

  I'm about 2/3ds of the way through the Art 32 transcript - bluntly, her testimony is a shit-show.  Credibility will be huge and I think she does a fantastic job of shooting herself in the foot in that arena.  Crossing her at trial should be a goldmine.

==BREAK BREAK==

Jim,
  If it's ok with you, can we hold off on our phone call tonight until I've fully digested the materials I got this morning and finished drafting the motion to dismiss some of the charges?  If not, I'd be happy to talk to you - introductory and the get-to-know you stuff and we can wait for the more substantive conversation later.  If you'd like to get a feel for who I am, I've attached a bio.  I've got a conference call this evening with the CDC and RDCs at 1800, but if you want to talk this evening, I can call you afterwards.  Just let me know - I'm flexible.

S/F

Let me get back to you later. I'm about to start an article 32. I trust your judgement. I prefer we get a pleading filed as soon as practicable to be fair. We can always adjust.
