Videotaped Deposition of Michael Wong — Blue Flame Medical LLC v. Chain Bridge Bank, N.A. (Dkt. 150-7)

Summary

This is Exhibit 91 in Document 150-7 of Case 1:20-cv-00658, excerpts of the remote videotaped deposition via Zoom of Michael Wong, taken Tuesday, January 19, 2021. The witness agrees that Blue Flame required prepayment on receipt of its invoice so it could secure product from suppliers, and that the invoice matched negotiations with Mr. Thomas. Questioning about an April 3rd email from Mr. Littman leads the witness to agree that none of the listed N95 models are 3M brand. The witness says he never discussed Blue Flame with anyone from the State of Maryland.
