Attorney Debra S. Katz and her client, Professor Christine Blasey Ford, have "accepted" the Committee's request to testify next week before the Senate next week regarding Professor Ford's allegation that Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh sexual assaulted her three decades ago, but have asked Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) for another meeting this afternoon to discuss specifics regarding the process in which the testimony will occur. Based on Debra Katz's request for more time to discuss specifics, it does not appear that they will actually testify under the proposed plan by the Senate Judiciary Committee.
"Dr. Ford accepts the Committee's request to provide her first-hand knowledge of Brett Kavanaugh's sexual misconduct next week," Katz's email read. But, she said the proposed order of business is "fundamentally inconsistent with the Committee's promise of a fair, impartial investigation into her allegations."
Katz also said that her legal team and client were "disappointed" with the "leaks and bullying" which have "tainted" this process. Katz's team now asks for even more time to discuss the testimony, after 5 extended deadlines have been given already.
Based on this letter from Katz, it appears no agreement has been met. The 2:30 PM deadline was not an invitation to discuss more details, but to accept the Senate Judiciary Committee's offer. Katz and Ford did not accept their offer and instead made a counteroffer to discuss more details, thus delaying the process even further.

Pre-positioning for claiming the other side was not “fair”.
Sounds like the same song playing over and over again.
Ford’s Butch Attorney is playing the GOP weak sisters
like a fiddle. And will continue until the weak sisters stop it.
This is the phoniest strip tease fan dance in human history. Even Fanny Brice is embarrassed.
I hope the gop has scoured the countryside in Md and found anyone who knows this tramp. After she testifies, bring them up as character witnesses and then bring in Mr. K.
“That is not accepting. If they show its accepting.”
I could not agree more. They are just delaying and delaying.
So testify on Thursday and this delays the vote and guarantees Kavanaugh will not be seated Oct 1st....and possibly at all. Repubs lose mid-terms over this?
Wasn’t that statute changed within the last year? Are new laws/statutes retroactive?
Good for her because then there will be PROOF demanded and according her there were no other witnesses than the guys and they all say it didn’t happen. Then Kavanaugh can sue the crap out of her.
I ain’t believing anything until I hear it from Grassley.
[ I have a question for the Freeper Maryland legal scholars. In 1982, was there a Maryland statute of limitations on attempted sexual assault, and if how long was it? When was the time limitation for bringing an action removed for such crimes? If there was a statute of limitations in 1982, had it expired when the law was changed to remove it? It seems to me that an unlimited SOL can’t be applied in a case where the old SOL had already run by the time the law was changed. Any thoughts? ]
Vote Kavanaugh in, the dumb bitch can try to file a civil suit...
The civil suit ( which has lower standards ) will either be dismissed or it will not even be filed.
What about the other 50 odd guys? Humm?
She won't agree to an interview unless they're 100% sure the vote will fail.
I don't think Collins is dumb....
..and possibly at all. Repubs lose mid-terms over this?
I said this last week and I mean it. This nomination goes down, I don’t vote. I don’t give a damn anymore.
Gosh am snowflakes ???
You don’t negotiate about this. Wussy Republicans have allowed dems to run the show and set the rules.
That cross-eyed, bug-eyed butch needs to be told to take a hike!
Oh, knock that off. It's so lazy.
“......THis sluts attorney is milking this for all its worth, so she too can have her 15 minutes of “fame”.”
I don’t think so. I think Katz is doing the bidding of they whom are paying her, which of course would be the Democrat party in one way, or another. I think she is doing as she is being told they want, which is to delay, delay, delay. Make us all lose confidence in our Republican majority. Cause confusion, and chaos prior to the upcoming election.
They will stand a better chance if we are in doubt about our leadership, and from some of the posts at this site it appears they have a winning strategy.
