From Courant.com:

Secretary of the State Susan Bysiewicz answered questions under oath Wednesday during an all-day, pretrial deposition in her lawsuit seeking a judge’s declaration that she is eligible to run for state attorney general.

Eliot Gersten, the attorney representing the state Republican Party, questioned Bysiewicz for more than five hours between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m., and will resume Monday when the deposition continues at his Hartford office.

Two video cameras recorded the closed-door “discovery” proceeding. After learning that Republicans intended to videotape the deposition, Bysiewicz asked to have her own videographer present. Bysiewicz’s lawyer, Wesley Horton, had said his client was concerned that if the Republican Party’s video showed only her — and not Gersten, as he questioned her — it might result in “a slanted, one-sided picture of her deposition” that could be made public.
