That statement is incorrect. Before trial, I instructed the parties to reduce the number of witnesses they intended to call. Based on my instruction, Defendants indicated that they would not be calling Dr. Allen as a witness. The failure to call Dr. Allen should not be considered by you in any way.” 1
