1 Q. Mr. Dobry, what familiarity do you have with Janice Shell?
2 A. Just that she's a poster on a silicone investor.
3 THE COURT: Poster on what --
4 THE WITNESS: Oh, she posting means she provides
5 information on the Internet on a thread. A thread is --
6 BY MR. LANDISH:
7 Q. What is a thread?
8 A. A thread is for a topic and it's posters to people who
9 provide the information there and post information to each
10 other about the merits of the investments. Though she's --
11 does the opposite, she bashes the investment.
12 Q. Do you know if she has any connection between any of the
13 defendants in this case, specifically Andy Mann?
14 A. Only what she claims on the Internet. I have no other
15 knowledge other than what she claims.
16 Q. If you see documents that you've obtained from the
17 Internet can you verify those documents?
18 A. Oh, sure.
19 Q. Could you identify -- you've got your book ahead of you.
20 What I would like is for you to pull one document where Janice

22 specifically or anybody else.
23 A. Andy Mann, okay.

1 any particular defendant, only what he reads on the Internet.
2 There isn't any foundation.
3 THE COURT: It would seem to me that you probably
4 need this witness -- what is kind of a boot strap operation
5 when she makes this claim. So unless there's some other
6 direction that he knows of personally I would sustain the
7 objection.
8 MR. LANDISH: Well, again, your Honor, we -- in that
9 case, your Honor, I have no further questioners.
10 THE COURT: Okay. Do you have any examination of
11 this witness?
12 MR. COOPER: We have none, your Honor.
13 MR. SEMENZA: No, your Honor.
14 MR. MONTAL: Your Honor, I'm assuming that none of
15 this testimony is admitted based on your Honor's previous
16 ruling that unless there's a foundation --
17 THE COURT: Well, it's probably all admitted but I
18 don't know that -- it's very neutral.
19 MR. MONTAL: Thank you, your Honor.
20 THE COURT: The exhibits have not been received. I
21 think you've lodged those exhibits to protect your record.
22 MR. LANDISH: Yes, I have lodged them, your Honor.
23 THE COURT: And that's fine. But the Court has not
24 received them.
25 MR. MONTAL: Thank you, your Honor.
