Q: when a question is leading or considered "putting words in someones mouth" does the objection have to occur right then and there, or can you object later to it so it cannot be used for trial or summary?
A: David's Answer: Usually in a deposition the attorneys agree to what's called "usual stipulations" which cover such objections as "leading." This way, you've preserved all your normal objections without interrupting the flow of the Deposition. That said, you may wish to schedule a consultation with a White Plains civil rights attorney for a full assessment. -- David Bliven, Bronx Civil Rights attorney (www.blivenlaw.net)
