Autonomy trial The boss of an HPE-affiliated reseller asked a barrister "what is this exactly?" when shown a copy of his own witness statement in London's High Court. Capax Discovery CEO John Baiocco then said he was "pretty sure" his HPE-funded lawyer had written it for him.

Just to reinforce what he said, Baiocco then added that "these are somebody else's writings about what I might have said or didn't say, correct?" He appeared not to understand the English legal principle that witness statements are supposed to be written personally.
