![1. Whether the Order preserves the privilege ground for questions not previously asked The Order states that "directions not to answer are limited to questions that call for privileged information," consistent with Rule 30(c)(2), and then rules that none of the questions Ms. Freeman declined to answer on September 14 implicated the attorney-client privilege. The Order goes on to provide that "all other objections" may be noted but the witness "MUST answer," and that "[a]ny direction not to answer that goes
beyond this ruling" will result in an adverse presumption and personal sanctions against the directing attorney. We read these provisions together to mean that (a) the previously refused questions must be answered, and (b) at the continued session, an instruction not to answer remains available only where a new question calls
for privileged information, as Rule 30(c)(2) permits. But one could plausibly read the phrase "the deposition will go on for as long as it takes" and the direction to answer "ALL questions" as proscriptively foreclosing any instruction not to answer any question on any ground. Because the Order attaches contempt exposure to a
misreading, I respectfully ask the Court to confirm which reading is intended.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:s5fi6htc7xhnshxxn37dg65c/bafkreig6mygb7euntdkr3wmrmtplxlvehe64nd3rzgskggbuxmtz6vg65q)
