Notable Quotes 3
As a reaction, and only as a reaction to total misbehavior on Mr. Edwards' part, and the Complaint wai obviously written by my attorneys, sir.
This is the type of questions where people who have nothing to do with this case whatsoever have been brought into the case by Mr. Edwards in an attempt to simply imperil my relationships with social friends and serves as an example of why this case has been brought against Mr. Edwards and his firm, sir.
I'm going to answer that question the same way I've answered most of your other questions here today, which is, I fully intend to respond to all relevant questions regarding this lawsuit; however, at the present time, my attorneys have counseled me I cannot provide answers to any questions relevant to this lawsuit. I must accept this advice or risk losing my 6th Amendment right to effective representation. Accordingly, I assert my federal constitutional rights as guaranteed by the 5th, 6th and 14th Amendment to the US Constitution.
