I wasn't there, either. And I don't have any special insight into why they are or are not calling particular witnesses. Perhaps limits on the number of witnesses made some compromises necessary. Perhaps the particular people involved could be harmful in other ways. Perhaps bringing them in from out of town is more costly than their testimony is worth. Perhaps the attorneys never expected to get the evidence in, but decided the attempt would at least make the judge aware of it.

JMHO.

Duke: This puts Jackson's acceptance of all the hearsay eMails in stark contrast to what this judge will properly allow and won't allow as evidence. I am and was surprised that Jackson's conduct was not dealt with more harshly by the Appeals Court in that his "findings of fact" were based on the same kind of flimsy evidence. His bias in accepting so much of it unchallenged was disgusting and reflected an enormous spiteful bias. Often he refused to listen to MSFT's objections dismissing them with ridicule. Other than that I guess Jackson is a swell jurist. JFD
