MEMORANDUM TO: '"Paul E. Merrell FROM: Chuck McCrea RE: Expenses Needlessly Incurred DATE: February 23, 1993 Herewith my expense report on my abortive trip to St. Louis to attend the deposition of a Monsanto PMK witness who was supposed to testify about sales and distribution of Monsanto manufactured dielectric fluids containing PCBs. Monsanto did;not produce the witness on February 22, as required, and to my knowledge gave us no notice that the witness would not be available on the date (February 22) for which the deposition was noticed. Our expenses for the trip total $908.52. In addition to my out of pocket expenses, I would normally have billed 11 hours to the client for my tim -- 4 hours on II Sunday, February 21, and 7 hours on Monday, February 22. 11 hours at my standard billing rate of $250 per hour is $2,750. II If in fact the paper trail confirms that Monsanto gave us no notice that its witness would not be available for the deposition when noticed, I think we are in a position to seek sanctions. ? f j. ,.-A - (i D A 'E f-y /"> 7 1/ / y/?
