premise: But we have several issues. One is that when we filed our motion to quash last week, quite honestly, we thought we did it in a timely fashion because we filed it only after we were served with the subpoena. Your Honor summarily dismissed that motion to quash, so, in effect, if my reporters were to be called upon to testify today by the plaintiffs, they're undressed.
hypothesis: The speaker has issues other than the motion to quash.
reason: The speaker says, "But we have several issues. One is that when we filed our motion to quash...", indicating that this is not the only issue he or she has.
