disagree. he's having them all in on thursday. that's pretty quick. having them all in on thursday. so presumably so he can decide this matter soukuperman can testify or not testify. so that gives you an idea of how the courts are even speeding this up. >> jeff -- >> if i'm not mistaken -- anderson, i think that the house already continues to have depositions scheduled to the middle of november. there are depositions being held out to the middle of november. seeing how things are going to move much quicker. if they're not wrapping up by the end -- you get thanksgiving, christmas, in the new year. pretty quickly here. taking depositions throughout the end of november doesn't seem like you're going to get things wrapped up too quickly. >> jeff, the house can structure the rules any way they want in terms of the actual opening hearings. are you encouraged that it's going to be staff members asking the questions or that's what they say? they said that and then clearly that sort of derailed.
