Premise: By our order of last Thursday -- the date escapes me, I think it was Thursday -- the Court denied relief in that matter. The Court was advised that yesterday, on September the 27th, the reporters, both of them, showed up at the appointed times for their depositions as appropriately scheduled by the defendants, and I'm advised -- and I'll correct this if I'm wrong -- that both reporters cited the reporter's privilege that they consider to exist under the First Amendment so that they would not answer any questions at those depositions.
Hypothesis: it all happened on a weekend
