CASE NO. 1:12-CV-00128 (RMC-DST-RLW) Three-Judge Court

NOTICE CONCERNING ATTORNEY GENERAL’S DEPOSITION DESIGNATIONS IN REPLY TO TEXAS’S COUNTER-DESIGNATIONS

According to this Court’s order of June 13, 2012 (ECF No. 183), the Plaintiff State of

Texas (the “State”) was ordered to file its deposition designations on June 20, 2012. (ECF No.

218.) The Defendant Attorney General Eric H. Holder, Jr. (“Attorney General”) was ordered to

file “deposition counter-designations” on June 25, 2012. (ECF No. 235.) And the State was

required to file “any deposition designations in reply to Defendants’ counter-designations” on

June 29, 2012. (ECF No. 254.)

The State’s June 29, 2012 (ECF No. 254), filing set out, in chart form, the following

headings and information: “Defendants’ Designations” (the Attorney General’s Counter-

Designations), “Plaintiffs’ Objections,” “Plaintiffs’ Counter-Designations,” “Defendants’

Objections to Counter Designations,” and “Court Ruling.” This chart did not include the State’s

deposition designations filed on June 20, 2012 (ECF No. 218), or a heading for the Attorney

General’s reply designations. The State’s objections, according to an Objection Key, also appear

in places to refer to the Texas Rules of Evidence (T.R.E.).

The Attorney General submits two exhibits in reply to the State’s filing and a third

containing additional expert designations. Exhibit 1 sets out the Attorney General’s June 25,

2012, counter-designations (ECF No. 235), the State’s evidentiary objections to those counter-

designations, and the Attorney General’s opposition to those objections.

Exhibit 2 sets out the State’s reply designations (labeled on the State’s chart as “Counter-

Designations”), the Attorney General’s objections to the State’s reply designations, and

testimony the Attorney General has designated in response to the State’s reply designations,

including any additional designations in response to the State’s evidentiary objections.

In Exhibit 3, the Attorney General has included designations of the testimony from

Randall Buck Wood and Dr. Alan Lichtman, whose depositions were taken on June 29, 2012,

and July 2, 2012, respectively.

In its June 29, 2012 (ECF No. 254) filing, the State lodged a general objection to the

Attorney General’s designation of portions of testimony from witnesses called live to testify at

trial. Texas repeated this objection on July 3, 2012, concerning the designation of expert witness

testimony. (ECF No. 281.) These objections have no merit. Given the limits on live testimony

at trial, these witnesses will be unable to testify to all of the matters designated. Further, the

State itself has designated testimony from witnesses it plans to call live at trial. See, e.g., (ECF

No. 218) (designating the testimony of Representative Aaron Pena, Senator Thomas D.

Williams, and Major Forrest Mitchell).

The Attorney General will provide the Court and counsel with electronic courtesy copies

of his designated transcripts on July 6, 2012.
