1 he would not either, but he can go on into the week of
2 26th.

4 MR. JUSTICE BELL: How long in-chief?
5
6 MR. RAMPTON: I am sorry, my Lord, two days I think. It might
7 be a day and a half.
8
9 MR. JUSTICE BELL: What would be helpful is if when you come
10 back at the beginning of next term you can give an estimate
11 of how long you think between you cross-examination of
12 those witnesses will take.
13
14 MR. RAMPTON: My Lord, I would also like, please, a fax from the
15 Defendants confirming the names of those witnesses who are
16 definitely going to give evidence on the employment issue,
17 so I can fill up July with the witnesses I need to respond
18 to.
19
20 MR. JUSTICE BELL: I will leave that where I did. When you come
21 back at the beginning of next term, whether it is done by
22 fax or you turn up with a sheet of paper or read it out in
23 court, I would like you to give me the names of those who
24 have made a positive response. If you can do that and give
25 time estimates for cross-examination, subject to the
26 reservations which you have just expressed, that would be
27 helpful.
28
29 MR. MORRIS: The Plaintiffs have served another statement today
30 of David Kouchoukos.
31
32 MR. RAMPTON: It is something your Lordship asked for clearing
33 up these figures. It will be, if not already, the subject
34 of a Civil Evidence Notice. He is in America. I do not
35 propose to call him back.
36
37 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Have you had time to read it?
38
39 MR. MORRIS: Very briefly. Some of it is very difficult to
40 read.
41
42 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Read it properly over the break. That can be
43 one of the things you talk to me about after Mr. Nicholson
44 has given his evidence-in-chief in the time we should have
45 over before the end of that week.
46
47 MR. RAMPTON: My Lord, I cannot remember where his original
48 statement is.
49
50 MR. JUSTICE BELL: I will put it behind his existing statement.
51
52 We will resume at 2 p.m. on Wednesday the 26th.
