Brian Levey, eBay’s in-house attorney for corporate securities and governance, started off Day 3 of the eBay v. Craigslist trial with a long series of “I don’t recall’s” in response to cross-examination by Perkins Coie attorney Michael Clyde.

Clyde: “That confirms, doesn’t it, that the reason you asked Mr. Silverman to leave the board was because you wanted to be beyond reproach from a corporate governance standpoint?”

Levey: “Yes.” 

Clyde: “But you weren’t interested in being beyond reproach from a corporate governance standpoint when eBay was PLANNING to launch a competitive venture against Craigslist?”

Levey: “No.”
