1 pleadings, because you have them paragraph by paragraph
2 there.
3
4 MR. MORRIS: It should be up there at the top.
5
6 MR. JUSTICE BELL: (To the witness) There is one which is
7 "Abstract of Pleadings", and you can turn to divider 4,
8 page 2, at the very bottom of the page, and then the
9 following page; and Mr. Morris will ask you about each one
10 in turn.
11
12 I suggest you merely ask if Mr. Green knows anything about
13 it, Mr. Morris, in the first place. Tab 4, page 2, the
14 general assertion at the bottom of the page, and then
15 particulars on page 3. You have already asked him about
16 the one at the top, or he has-----
17
18 MR. MORRIS: He has given evidence about that, but we did not
19 ask him.
20
21 MR. JUSTICE BELL: You ask him further about that, if you wish.
22 It was Mr. Rampton who asked him about it; that is quite
23 right.
24
25 MR. MORRIS: (To the witness) If you read the first paragraph,
26 could you just say if that is true?
27 A. I cannot comment on the factual aspects of this. I do
28 remember that there was a discussion about this. It was a
29 controversy. I did not participate in it, but I do
30 remember that it happened.
31
32 MR. JUSTICE BELL: It is the last line which is the one matter
33 which is in issue now.
34
35 MR. MORRIS: Did they drop the advertisement because they had
36 complaints from the Attorney General?
37 A. No.
38
39 Q. As far as you know?
40 A. No, not at all.
41
42 Q. They did not?
43 A. That is correct.
44
45 Q. You do not know about the situation, but do you know they
46 did not drop it because of complaints from the
47 Attorney General?
48 A. I would have been told to drop advertising. I was not
49 told to drop any advertising. In fact, from an advertising
50 point of view, I was never contacted and told to do
51 anything.
52
53 Q. Was that ad ever shown, in your recollection, following the
54 date of the dispute, that you are aware of?
55 A. I am not sure what specific ad, but we have had
56 Chicken McNuggett advertising over the last number of
57 years.
58
59 Q. Yes. Has it ever used the wording that was in that ad? We
60 could get it all out. Do you remember if the same wording
