:52:02
which would allow me to consider it.
:52:05
Therefore, you have
two choices before you:
:52:08
I can send this case
back to the state court...
:52:11
and you can present the evidence...
:52:14
or, ifyou insist...
:52:17
on, uh, proceeding...
:52:21
this evidence will be lost
to you forever.
:52:29
You understand the choice
before you, Mr Beldock?
:52:39
Your Honour, may I request
a moment to confer with my client?
:52:44
That's the smartest thing
you've said all morning, Counsellor.
:52:55
Rubin, listen to me.
Thisjudge is telling us
as clearly as he possibly can...
:52:59
that he's going
to rule against you.
:53:02
- This is our last stand, Myron.
- Rubin, I am begging you--
:53:04
Let's proceed.
:53:16
Your Honour, my client wishes
to continue with this proceeding.
:53:22
Uh, do you do so formally...
:53:25
and, uh, are you aware of the, uh...
:53:28
significance ofsuch an action?
:53:32
We do so formally.
:53:40
- Proceed.
- But, Your Honour--
:53:43
- Yes?
- Uh, the state is not prepared...
:53:46
to proceed to argue
the merits of this case.
:53:48
Why not?
:53:52
Well, we, we assumed...
:53:54
that the court would not hear
this petition based on new evidence.
:53:59
You assumed wrong.
