I can do it that way, it doesn't matter to me.

THE WITNESS: It's up to you. 
4 
MR. KUVIN: It's up to you guys. 
5 
MR. PIKE: As I've said, Mr. Kuvin, if you 
6 
want to limit the time that we spend here today and 
7 
ask a compound question if you're going to list 
8 
various items or list individuals by name and ask 
9 
questions, I won't have a compound objection to 
10 
that type of inquiry if it's in light of attempting 
11 
to save time. 
12 
MR. KUVIN: Sure.

BY MR. KUVIN:

8 
MR. PIKE: Additionally, just for the Court's 
9 
record, you're questioning the witness on Exhibit 
10 
No. what? 
11 
MR. KUVIN: It's not an exhibit. It's the 
12 
Town of Palm Beach Incident Report with respect to 
13 
Jeffrey Epstein, of which I gave you a copy before. 
14 
And that was referencing, just so the record is 
15 
clear, page 46. 
16 
MR. PIKE: Then I would add additional 
17 
privileges and objections in addition to what

MR. PIKE: Predicate, foundation --
4 
THE WITNESS: I believe that's been asked and 
5 
answered. 
6 
MR. PIKE: Harassing. And I believe as 
7 
worded, that question has been asked and answered 
8 
in sub parts. I believe you've asked those 
9 
questions initially at the beginning of this 
10 
deposition. The same objections would, therefore,

apply and be incorporated.

did you cross notice this deposition? 
17 
MS. EZELL: No, I did not. 
18 
MR. PIKE: So what is your purpose of being 
19 
here? 
20 
My position is that these are closed 
21 
proceedings and your client, your client did not 
22 
cross notice this deposition and/or your clients. 
23 
So what is your purpose of sitting in on this 
24 
deposition? 
25 
MS. EZELL: Well, I received a notice of it, 
0248 
1 
and I just thought I would listen to it while I was 
2

3 
would be a closed proceeding.
