ORDER granting in part and denying in part 68 Motion. Moore's appearance is likely to foster impressions and inferences about her health; those can't reasonably be avoided. But Davis must keep Moore's health out of the spotlight - Moore's expert opinion, not her health, is the issue. If Moore is not at trial, the Court will explain her absence to the jury without mentioning Moore's health problems. The recording is not the place to do that. On all other points, respect and reasonableness should carry the parties through. Signed by Judge D. P. Marshall Jr. on 10/20/2015. (jak)
