[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The judge is not happy with the defense.

[i]U.S. District Judge Arun Subramanian called for a lunchtime recess and asked jurors to return to the courtroom at 1 p.m. ET.

Subramanian told lawyers he wasn't happy with the pace of Ventura's examination because he wants the eight-months-pregnant woman to be done sooner rather than later.

When the defense said they would need all day today and all day tomorrow, Subramanian angrily responded, "That is the exact opposite of what I was told."

"This witness needed to be off the stand by the end of the week so what happened?" the clearly perturbed judge said.[/i][/quote]

This seems poorly planned. Good crosses are tight and much shorter than direct. Plus dragging out the cross of a very pregnancy witness has a higher chance of making the jury feel for her.

[i]U.S. District Court Judge Arun Subramanian appears to still be agitated from the back and forth he had with Combs' attorneys prior to the break.

Subramanian's agitation stems from the speed with which the defense is questioning Cassie Ventura.

The judge sternly reminded the defense it was given a day and a half to cross examine Cassie, who is eight months pregnant, and that she would be done by the end of the week.

Combs' attorney, Marc Agnifilo, argued that Ventura should be able to come back Monday morning if needed.

The judge shot back: "In what universe did you not understand this is what was going to happen ... you’re not telling me this wasn't everyone’s understanding that this witness was going to be done this week?"

Cassie was reviewing exhibits in a side room while the exchange took place.[/i][/quote]
