Erik during cross-examination by David Conn, December 18th 1995

CONN: OKAY. WAS YOUR FATHER EVER ARRESTED FOR ABUSING YOU IN PUBLIC?

ERIK: NO.

CONN: THERE WAS NEVER A COACH OR A LIFEGUARD WHO WOULD COME UP AND SAY, WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO THAT LITTLE BOY?

ERIK: IF YOU'RE SERIOUSLY SUGGESTING, MR. CONN, THAT THERE ARE NOT TEACHERS AND TENNIS COACHES THAT SAW THINGS HAPPEN OVER MY LIFE THAT YOU SPECIFICALLY OBJECTED TO COMING INTO THIS COURTROOM AND CANNOT AS A RESULT -

CONN: I'M GOING TO OBJECT AS NON-RESPONSIVE.

THE COURT: THE OBJECTION IS SUSTAINED. THE ANSWER IS STRICKEN.
