SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Oct 22 – David Joffe is a
lawyer who has sued King &
Spalding for wrongful
termination.
On
October 18 U.S. District Court
for the Southern District of
New York Judge Valerie E.
Caproni held a proceeding.
Inner City Press covered it,
below. Nine days later she
would refer to dirty laundry
as the trial approached.
On October
18 there was talk of Joffe
calling as witnesses some
current King & Spalding
employees.
The defense asked
for notice, and about how they
will be permitted to
cross-examine.
Jury selection is
set for November 9 -
everything is tentative, these
days, and holidays come after.
On October 22
Judge Caproni held another
conference, and Inner City
Press again covered it. Joffe
was asked what witnesses he
will call. He will be the
first witness, and a King
& Spalding-er he's
requesting come north from
Atlanta. Judge Caproni said he
runs a fast trial, to have
next witnesses ready.
And on October 27
Judge Caproni held another
conference, which Inner City
Press again covered. Judge
Caproni cautioned against
lengthy reading of transcripts
to the jurors, urging instead
that the parties reach
stipulations. I can't force
you, though, she said. In
which case, the transcripts
should be limited to only the
most relevant portions. She
also cautioned that dirty
laundry would come out. But
for now the trial date stands,
and as it first has been,
Inner City Press will be
there.
The case is Joffe
v. King & Spalding LLP,
17-cv-3392 (Caproni)
