| [16:39] | Okay.The issue, hot off the press it seems | 看起来 焦点问题在于 |
| [16:42] | is the splitting of the trial. | 对审判的分割 |
| [16:44] | Your Honor, we feel,as indeed did Judge Walsh | 法官阁下 我们认为 正如Walsh法官所说 |
| [16:47] | that an enormous amount of time would be spent on damages | 由于原告数量众多 |
| [16:51] | considering there are multiple plaintiffs. | 我们将在损害问题上耗费大量的时间 |
| [16:53] | So why not answer the liability question first? | 所以 为什么不先审查责任问题呢 |

| [16:57] | the assumptions that we lose on liability. | 我们会输掉责任问题的假设之上 |
| [16:59] | If we win, you’ll end up spending more time. | 如果我们赢了 结果反而会花费更多时间 |
| [17:02] | You’d be asking the jury to go back and deliberate twice. | 你得把陪审团找回来 让他们再做一次裁决 |

| [17:07] | That goes against judicial economy. | 这不符合司法经济原则 |
| [17:09] | If and only if you prevail on liability, | 当且仅当你能赢得责任问题的前提下 |
| [17:11] | which, given the evidence… | 考虑到本案的证据… |
| [17:13] | The reason they want the trial split is simple. | 他们想把审判分拆的原因很简单 |
| [17:15] | We had a deposition this morning. | 我们今天上午做了一次证言笔录 |
| [17:17] | One of our plaintiffs talked about his son having leukemia. | 有一位原告谈到他的儿子患上了白血病 |
| [17:20] | It was emotional. It was powerful. | 他说得很动情 很有感染力 |
| [17:23] | And when it was over, Mr. West said to himself: | 结束之后 West对自己说 |
| [17:26] | “We cannot let that witness ever take the stand. | 我们决不能让那个证人出庭作证 |
| [17:28] | We cannot let a jury hear what we just heard.” | 我们不能让陪审团听到他刚刚所说的内容 |
| [17:31] | So how does he accomplish that? | 那么他准备怎么办 |
| [17:33] | By splitting the trial in two. | 把审判分成两个阶段 |
| [17:35] | And I must say that it seems to make sense. | 我必须指出 这看起来是有合理性的 |
| [17:37] | Liability should be decided on fact, | 责任问题应当取决于案件事实 |
| [17:39] | counsel, not emotion. | 律师 而不是情感 |
| [17:40] | And we trust a jury to distinguish between the two. | 我们相信陪审团有能力区分这两者 |
| [17:43] | The whole essence of a jury trial, your honor… | 法官阁下 陪审团审判的核心精神… |
| [17:45] | Oh, dear, now here comes her constitutional repertoire, you see? | 哦 又来了 她最擅长的宪法 是吧 |
| [17:48] | Did you bring your flag today? | 你今天带了国旗没有 |
| [17:50] | Since you raise it, what about notice? | 既然你提出来 你事前通知没有 |
| [17:52] | He didn’t file any motion to split this trial. | 他没有提出要求分拆审判的正式动议 |
| [17:54] | He suddenly raised it as a suggestion, | 他突然以建议的方式提出来 |
| [17:56] | and the court granted it. | 法庭就准许了 |
| [17:58] | If we’re really interested in saving time,please. | 如果我们真的想节省时间 拜托 |
| [18:00] | That ruling almost guarantees us an appeal. | 那样的裁决几乎保证了我们可以上诉 |
| [18:03] | Now it’s you assuming your own defeat. | 现在是你自己在假定你们会输 |
| [18:06] | Win or lose, my clients should get their day in court. | 不管赢还是输 我的当事人应该有上庭的权利 |
| [18:09] | And this trial-splitting is designed to prevent that. | 而分拆审判的目的就是为了阻止他们上庭 |
| [18:11] | They’re trying to keep our clients out of the witness chair. | 他们试图阻止我们的当事人出庭作证 |
| [18:14] | But your clients will get to testify | 但是只要你们证明了因果关系 |
| [18:16] | if you can satisfy causation, counsel. | 你的当事人就有机会作证 律师 |
| [18:18] | The science part of this case is gonna be dry | 本案的科学证据部分会很枯燥 |
| [18:21] | and God-awful boring. | 极其无聊 |
| [18:23] | By splitting the trial into two sections | 把审判分成两个部分 |
| [18:26] | you giving the jury the option of getting out early. | 其实是给了陪审团早日解脱的选择权 |
| [18:28] | All they’ll have to do is just say no on liability | 他们只要否决责任问题 |
| [18:32] | and they get to go home. | 然后就可以回家了 |
| [18:34] | My clients will not get a fair trial | 把审判分拆 我的当事人 |
| [18:36] | by splitting this trial. | 将不能得到公正的审理 |
| [18:38] | -Your clients have no case. -All right. | -你的当事人没有诉讼理由 -好了 |
