Sometimes when you don't hear from me for a while it is because there is not much to report. Other times there is plenty and I just don't have time to report it. Last three days were the latter. Monday Rosen deposed my wife Arel for three hours. It was relatively fractious, especially the exchange with (now demoted) Warren McShane over the transparent access he has with "sealed" materials but she did not end up taking a broken water glass to him. The deposition ended at 6 pm and we drove to Los Angeles. Next morning my daughter was subjected to an hour of deposition by Rosen. I was in the room along with Valory Horn, her attorney. Arel picketed outside the building. Warren was there. My daughter said he looked much like Penn of the comedy team. There were a few memorable exchanges between Rosen and Ms Horn, and we walked out of the deposition after the one our stipulated by the judge--not the one in San Jose, but a Central district judge. The judge had expressed concern about the size of the file, saying it was bigger than any she had seen, including major companies going bankrupt. She limited Amber's depostion to one hour and ordered RTC to pay $1000 in sanctions for trying to get a longer deposition. Rosen did not do so hot trying to deal with Amber. In spite of mocking/sneering, he could not shake her. Part of the deposition was about some artwork she was given when she was a little kid and the rest was about such matters as what she had been given as a graduation present. Rosen tried to upset her in a number of places, one exchange about "being paid" for her tutoring work was memorable where they got into a tiff about what he ment by the term, being handed money or accumulating hours? Rosen threatened (empty threat) to go back to the judge and ask for more time several times. Not likely. There is a *lot* more detail fasinating detail if someone wants to spring for the transcript or would like to talk to me about the event in a "you were there mode." I was involved in some investigation work for much of the afternoon. About three PM Arel and I put in a short picket on LRH way. When we parked on Sunset, there were three estates project force children sweeping the sidewalk (and doing a *very* poor job of it). The EPF children came up to our car just as we were getting the signs out. The kids read the signs with wide open eyes and then ran. The rest of them were *not* expecting us and did not know they should run inside. So many of them got a heavy exposure to such matters as RTC "squirelling" the tech. Wed morning I was back in deposition with Rosen in San Jose. Something major went down inside scientology between deposing Amber and deposing me. Rosen was polite and rather than trying to nitpick and ask for more and more paperwork, he just took anything as fully reponsive to the request. They did more abuse of process by using this case in an attempt to get me to authenticate postings for the criminal case in Hemet. More later Keith Henson
