Dr. Hoffman Your Honors, before I continue with Mr. Ambros, could I comment briefly on the prosecution s motion which was made yesterday. I have not seen these weekly construction reports, but in agreement with the defendant, I agree to having them produced. We want to discover the truth. But I believe that this motion brings up some other basic questions that the defense, as a whole, would take some stand on. 

Next day, Dr. Hoffman handed over to us a few weekly construction reports. It was a token gesture. The other counsel would not release anything until the court ruled. Hoffman wanted to return all the remaining documents (for he believed the court would order the defense to do so anyway) and to account for those that had been destroyed. Or (and the alternative seemed impossible to him), if the court did not issue the order, the prosecution would raise a rumpus that would hurt the defense even more than a frank disclosure of the suppressed evidence.
