both to create offices and to appoint officers. In this regard, the concurrence stated that "it was not enough simply to repose the power to execute the laws (or to appoint) in the President; it was also necessary to provide him with the means to resist legislative encroachment upon that power. The means selected were various, including a separate political constituency, to which he alone was responsible, and the power to veto encroaching laws, see Art. I, § 7, or even to disregard them when they are unconstitutional." Id. at 906 (Scalia, J., concurring). HOUSE OVERSIGHT 012393 6) Lear Siegler, Inc., Energy Products Division v. Lehman, 842 F.2d 1102 (9th Cir. 1988), withdrawn in part 893 F.2d 205 (9th Cir. 1990) (en banc): The President refused to comply with provisions of the Competition in Contracting Act that he viewed as unconstitutional and thereby allowed for judicial resolution of the issue. The Ninth Circuit rejected the President's arguments about the constitutionality of the provisions. The court further determined that Lear Siegler was a prevailing party and was entitled to attorneys' fees, because the executive branch acted in bad faith in refusing to execute the contested provisions. In this regard, the court stated that the President's action was "utterly at odds with the texture and plain language of the Constitution," because a statute is part of the law of the land that the President is obligated to execute. Id. at 1121, 1124. On rehearing en banc, the court ruled that Lear Siegler was not a prevailing party and withdrew the sections of the opinion quoted above.

LEOPOLD: Lewis, we're not going to do 3 that. 4 MR. TEIN: My name is not Lewis. 5 I'm going to finish my question. Okay? 6 MR. LEOPOLD: Do not answer until you hear 7 from me. 8 BY MR. TEIN: Page 7 HOUSE OVERSIGHT 012402 -0929104.TXT 9 Q. Other than conversations that you have had 10 with Mr. Leopold -- I'm not asking about that -- are you 11 aware that Mr. Leopold has filed a lawsuit in federal 12 court seeking fifty million dollars from Jeffrey Epstein 13 on your behalf? 14 MR. LEOPOLD: Same objection. 15 Anything that you learn through 16 conversations between you and me, do not answer. 17 Those are protected.

TEIN: Are you going to say that for Page 8 HOUSE OVERSIGHT 012403 -0929104.TXT 14 every question in the deposition, Mr. Leopold? 15 MR. LEOPOLD: When you ask improper 16 questions like that without the proper -- 17 MR. TEIN: You're going to stop your 18 speaking objections right now. Okay? 19 MR. LEOPOLD: Without the proper -- 20 MR. TEIN: You need to stop your speaking 21 objections. 22 Let's continue. 23 MR. LEOPOLD: Counsel, you just asked me a 24 question and I'm going to state it on the 25 record -- 11 1 MR. TEIN: You need to stop your speaking 2 objections. Check your rules. 3 MR. LEOPOLD: Excuse me. For the record, 4 Counsel asked me a question. I'll state the 5 answer on the record. He asked me the question am 6 I going to be answering that way throughout the 7 deposition. So long as there's improper 8 foundation and predicate asked by the attorney, I 9 will protect my client and I make the record where 10 appropriate. If counsel wishes to ask an 11 appropriate worded question with the proper 12 foundation and predicate, I will certainly allow 13 the client to answer the question. 14 MR. GOLDBERGER: Why don't you just state 15 attorney/client privilege and just be done with 16 it. 17 MR. LEOPOLD: I want the record to be Page 9 HOUSE OVERSIGHT 012404 -0929104.TXT 18 clear. 19 MR. TEIN: You want to waste time is what 20 you want to do. You were supposed to be here this 21 morning and you totally broke the deal, the 22 agreement that you had with us if your hearing got 23 cancelled. 24 But let's move on and maybe you'll stop 25 obstructing this deposition. 12 1 MR. LEOPOLD: I think the record is very 2 clear where we stand thus far. 3 Is there a recording taken of this 4 deposition? 5 THE COURT REPORTER: Yes. 6 MR. LEOPOLD: Just make sure that's 7 preserved. 8 BY MR. TEIN: 9 Q. Go to Exhibit 20-01 -- well, before you do 10 that, , are you aware that a lawyer named Jeffrey 11 Herman filed a lawsuit on your behalf, yes or no? 12 MR. LEOPOLD: Objection. 13 Any conversations that you and I have had 14 regarding that, if that is the only way by which 15 you understand how to answer that question, so not 16 answer. It's attorney/client privilege, as well 17 as any conversations you may have had with the 18 attorney from Miami. That is also attorney/client 19 privilege. And I'm assuming -- 20 MR. TEIN: You're actually wrong about the 21 attorney/client privilege. 22 MR. LEOPOLD: I'm assuming Counsel is not Page 10 HOUSE OVERSIGHT 012405 -0929104.TXT 23 asking you to divulge attorney/client -- 24 MR. TEIN: Of course not. 25 BY MR. TEIN: 13 1 2' 4 tAU4IfEagAblaglaft0SORMODWYAK0000 4 MR. LEOPOLD: Same objection. 5 MR. TEIN: We've heard the objection 10 6 times already. 7 MR. LEOPOLD: Counsel, excuse me. 8 MR. TEIN: Just say attorney/client 9 privilege. Stop interrupting my questions. 10 MR. LEOPOLD: I'm entitled to make an 11 objection for the record, which I'm doing, and 12 I'll make the same objection. And if it calls for 13 attorney/client privilege, any conversations you 14 and I have had, do not answer the question. 15 And I think that it might be appropriate 16 for the record to ask questions via 17 as opposed to I think that would be more 18 appropriate for this deposition. 19 BY MR TEIN: 20 Q. Go ahead. Please answer yes or no. 21 la TOD 22 Q. Thank you. 23 In fact, you know that Mr. Herman held a 24 press conference after he filed the fifty-million-dollar 25 lawsuit on your behalf, don't you?

Now you know that this is a very serious 16 matter, don't you? 17 MR. LEOPOLD: Asked and answered. 18 Objection. 19 MR. GOLDBERGER: All right. You can 20 object. You're representing a witness here, 21 Mr. Leopold. You can object on privilege grounds. 22 You cannot make legal objections. You have no 23 standing to do so. 24 MR. LEOPOLD: I'm going to make them and 25 then -- 15 1 MR. GOLDBERGER: We're -- 2 MR. LEOPOLD: We're going to leave or we're 3 going to take a break because his demeanor is not 4 appropriate. There's no reason to have this kind Page 12 HOUSE OVERSIGHT 012407 -0929104.TXT 5 of demeanor. If you want to have this kind of 6 demeanor with me 7 MR. TEIN: You are obstructing this 8 deposition. 9 MR. GOLDBERGER: Why don't you guys go 10 outside and just talk about -- 11 MR. LEOPOLD: She -- her job is very 12 difficult and she's not going to be able to take 13 us both talking at he same time. 14 MR. GOLDBERGER: Off the record. 15 MR. LEOPOLD: We're not going off the 16 record, Jack. We're not, Jack. Her job is very 17 difficult. I'm going to make the record. 18 I don't think it is appropriate, especially 19 in the small confines of this room, to be very 20 aggressive with this young lady. 21 MR. TEIN: That's not happening. Stop, 22 stop actually -- 23 MR. LEOPOLD: If you're going to interrupt 24 me, we're going to cancel this deposition -- 25 MR. TEIN: Stop misrepresenting. 16 1 THE COURT REPORTER: I need on at a time, 2 no matter who it is. 3 MR. LEOPOLD: I think we're going to take a 4 break. Perhaps you might want to talk to your 5 co-counsel -- 6 MR. TEIN: I don't need to talk to him. 7 MR. LEOPOLD: But we're going to take a 8 break. Page 13 HOUSE OVERSIGHT 012408 -0929104.TXT 9 MR. TEIN: Not taking a break unless the 10 witness needs a break. 11 You're obstructing this deposition, Ted. 12 MR. LEOPOLD: Come on, 13 You all want to continue in this 14 demeanor -- 15 MR. TEIN: You're obstructing the 16 deposition. Stop making speeches. We're not 17 discussing this with you. The questions are to 18 your client. Go take your five-minute break. 19 MR. LEOPOLD: Fine. We need to make sure 20 the record's clear and clean. 21 And I want to make sure as I've already 22 asked you -- I know that you're one of the best in 23 town -- that this audio -- this needs to be 24 preserved. Okay? 25 MR. TEIN: Go take your five-minute break, 17 1 Mr. Leopold, now. 2 You were supposed to be here at nine a.m.; 3 it's now after two. Take your break and come 4 back. 5 MR. LEOPOLD: Okay.

Page 49 HOUSE OVERSIGHT 012444 -0929104.TXT 9 A. Okay. I work at and people 10 were telling me that people were looking for me. So yes, 11 I was aware that people were searching for me, but I had 12 no idea who they were or what their intentions were, but 13 I thought they were just people I didn't want to talk to. 14 So I just didn't want to talk to them. And every time 15 they'd come to work I wasn't there. And so happens the 16 night that they came in me and my friend switched name 17 tags. No big deal. 18 Q. That's a lie, isn't it? 19 MR. LEOPOLD: Objection. Don't answer that 20 question. That's harassment and I will not allow 21 it. He could ask the questions and we'll allow a 22 jury to make that determination, but not counsel. 23 I will not allow her to answer that 24 question. 25 MR. TEIN: Certify it. 59 1 MR.

I'm not going to 8 put up with it, because it's in appropriate, Jack, 9 and you know it. I will not allow Counsel to 10 berate a witness, whether it's in a criminal case 11 or a civil case, whether my client or 12 MR. TEIN: Calm down. 13 MR. LEOPOLD: Excuse me. Page 50 HOUSE OVERSIGHT 012445 -0929104.TXT 14 No, I'm not going to allow it. That is not 15 proper. 16 MR. GOLDBERGER: Okay. 17 MR. LEOPOLD: If he wants to say that she's 18 lying after asking it five times and her 19 explaining in great detail, he can do that. But 20 I'm not going to allow her to answer, nor be 21 harassed by him. It's improper. 22 MR. GOLDBERGER: Okay. But your response 23 that Counsel doesn't like the question -- or 24 doesn't like the answer -- just let me finish. 25 MR. LEOPOLD: Absolutely. I wasn't going 60 1 to interrupt you. 2 MR. GOLDBERGER: Just requires us to say we 3 like the answer to that question. And it's not 4 you and t or you and Mr. Tein who are testifying 5 here. It's the witness. 6 MR. LEOPOLD: Fine. But after the sixth 7 time of asking the same question and then coming 8 back and pointing a finger at her and saying, 9 you're a liar -- 10 MR. TEIN: That didn't happen. 11 MR. LEOPOLD: That's fine. But I'm not 12 going to allow her to answer that question because 13 she's answered that same question and has 14 explained it. 15 Now Counsel might be sitting there rubbing 16 his head with a migraine. That's his problem. 17 But if he can't ask a question appropriately in a Page 51 HOUSE OVERSIGHT 012446 -0929104.TXT 18 professional manner, we will leave. I will not 19 allow her to be berated like that. 20 MR. GOLDBERGER: Actually, we're very happy 21 with the answer. 22 MR. LEOPOLD: That's great. 23 MR. GOLDBERGER: Do you want us to get into 24 that? 25 MR. TEIN: Ted -- 61 1 MR. LEOPOLD: This is really big stuff that 2 you're going through, but that's fine; just ask 3 your question and move on. But do it one time. 4 If you don't understand it, I'll let you follow 5 up, but I'm not going to allow you to ask the same 6 question the time and again and then call her a 7 liar. Just ask the question, get the answer and 8 move to the next subject matter. 9 MR. TEIN: Ted, I'm sitting right across 10 the table from you. 11 MR. LEOPOLD: Yes, sir. 12 MR. TEIN: Please be quiet.
