The lower courts are divided as to how to protect this right when one (or more) of the jurors requests dismis- sal of a juror during deliberations. The D.C. Circuit, First Circuit, and Second Circuit all have held that a dismissal request must be denied if there is “any pos- sibility” that the complaints about a juror are related to that juror’s views of the merits

  • Dan Moldea's 3-8-2013 Memorandum
    March 8, 2013 MEMORANDUM TO: File FROM: Dan E. Moldea SUBJECT: John Connolly’s sworn statement of 1-8-2013 and the claim that Connolly, Anita Busch, and I “never reached agreement on who was behind Anthony Pellicano’s actions against Anita” In his sworn declaration of January 8, 2013, John Connolly made the claim that he, Anita Busch, and I “never reached agreement on who was behind Anthony Pellicano’s actions against Anita” while we were working together on our book project. This statement is false. All three of us agreed that Michael Ovitz was “behind Anthony Pellicano’s actions against Anita.” The only disagreements revolved around whether Ovitz had accomplices and/or prior knowledge about the specific attacks. In his sworn statement, John wrote: 3. During the time we were working on the book, the three of us never reached agreement on who was behind Anthony Pellicano’s actions against Anita. While Dan Moldea argued that it was Michael Ovitz, Anita remained convinced that it was Jules Nasso or someone associated with organized crime. She became even more adamant that it was Nasso after January 2004 when the U.S. Attorney released a document with a copy of a file seized from Pellicano’s office which had Steven Seagal’s name on the cover but with the client and attorney names redacted. I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the State of California that the foregoing is true and correct, and that this declaration is executed this 8 day of January 2013 in New York City, New York.

I make this declaration under the penalty of perjury. 3. In May 2003, I began writing a nonfiction book with Anita Busch (“Ms. Busch”) in the wake of the alleged attacks against her by Anthony Pellicano (“Mr. Pellicano”), hoping that we could get the book published, tell her important story, and make money on the back end. 4. Ms. Busch and I signed an Author Collaboration Agreement (“Collaboration Agreement”) in January 2004. Although we would share the copyright and she would have editorial control, I would be the sole author. We gave the book the working title, A Woman at Risk (the “Book”). In addition, we originally agreed that we would split all advances and royalties 60-40 in her favor. I would work for free on this project and receive no money until we sold our Book project to a publishing house. A true and accurate copy of this Collaboration Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit A. 5. To assist in the composition of the draft proposals and draft manuscripts, Ms. Busch faxed and mailed to me no fewer than170 single-spaced pages of detailed personal notes about how her life and career had been affected by the Pellicano investigation.

    The independent student newspaper at the University of Oregon dailyemerald.com SINCE 1900 | Volume 109, Issue 164 | Monday, May 19, 2008 ETHNIC stuDIES Students push for program to become a department Students and faculty who sup- JAmmiN’ IN THE PARK port the departmentalization of the University’s ethnic studies program have reached what some consider to be the next step toward their goal. The students from the Ethnic Studies Coalition will be meeting with Senior Vice President and Pro- vost Linda Brady on Tuesday to dis- cuss transforming the program into a department. Emily McLain, ASUO president and Ethnic Studies Coalition mem- ber, said that last Friday, Wendy Larson, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, signed a letter endors- ing the departmentalization of the ethnic studies program. “Dean Larson was really the only vocal opposition among the admin- istration,” said McLain. “Her sign- ing a letter endorsing the depart- mentalization of the program really meant a lot.” McLain said that the administra- tion will probably be making a final decision this summer, before Larson leaves her position. McLain said that Brady has been very supportive of the student and faculty effort to departmentalize the program. Kari Herinckx, also an Ethnic Stud- ies Coalition member, said that a committee of faculty members was formed around five weeks ago to re- view and make recommendations about departmentalizing the program to Larson. The committee recently made its recommendation to the dean, KATE CLArk | Photographer said Herinckx.
