The Court: It encompasses it, but the concern
that I have, though, Mr. Fishman, is that it could be
that she [Louise] did a great deal during 1988 and
didn’t do anything in ’91. And there is no way to
confirm that from what you’re saying; isn’t that right?
The Witness: Other than speaking to her, that’s
correct.[14]
Fishman’s blind reliance on the specific data is especially
exemplified by the following colloquy between Fishman and the
Court:
The Court: When he described to you that Louise
Fournier negotiated fuel purchases, * * * did you come
to understand that she did that every day, every week,
every month, every year? How often did that happen?
The Witness: I don’t know.
The Court: * * * you indicate that she managed
the Company’s banking relationships.
The Witness: Yes.
The Court: Where did you get that information,
the same source?
The Witness: Yes.
The Court: Did you independently verify that?
The Witness: No.
The Court: What banking relationships did she
manage?
The Witness: I think they were the day-to-day
banking relationships, the signing of the checks —-
The Court: That’s more ministerial.
14 And speaking to Louise was not possible because she was
dead.
