Drafta summary of the witness statement. P is the paralegal and W is the witness, Melanie Tallis. You spoke with her May 1, 2022. W:I could hear the party music. I was watering my garden. Then Arthur asked me to join the party. P:Did you hear Mr. Phelps say anything to Mr. Lehman? W:Yes. He asked him to keep the noise down, and he asked how long people would be at the party. He was nasty; he told me a minute earlier that he was angry at Arthur because he didn't ask him to join the party. A:Did he say anything else to you about Mr. Lehman? W:Yes. He said he would get him to take notice of him and he would get back at him. He said he felt like punching Arthur. A:What time did this conversation take place? W:6:30 P.M., when the party was beginning. A:Did you see Mr. Phelps cut the tree branch? W:Yes. A:What happened when Mr. Phelps cut the tree? W:He was in the tree. He was looking at Arthur and the other guests and shaking his fists. He yelled, "I'm going to get you Lehman," then he cut the big branch. It landed on Arthur's head. A:Did Mr. Lehman hear Mr. Phelps say "I'm going to get you Lehman?" W:I don't think so, because Arthur wasn't looking at Phelps. He had turned to look at people dancing."
