Hi,
Could you please tell me why the plaintiff attorney, namely Mr.Schlichtmann, in the following text says that" I almost feel it would be necessary for us to have our own attorneys," and what he means by saying that? Here is the text?
The judge said" the question is: What did you have before you when you drew up this complaint? And the best way to find that out is for Mr.Cheeseman to ask you. If you had a basis to file a lawsuit that is the end of it, otherwise I 'll strike the complaint."
Schlichtmann was on his feet again. "It would be, I believe, unseemly for a plaintiff's attorney to take the witness stand and answer questions by the defendant's attorney," he said. I almost feel it would be necessary for us to have our own attorneys. I'm willing to provide The Court wit detailed affidavits. Please note that Mr.cheesemann is the defendant lawyer.Thanks
He means this. If I am going to be treated as a witness and questioned by the defense attorney, I almost think I should have my own attorney to ensure that the defense attorney treats me correctly.
