Judge John O'Sullivan decided Madonna will be required to sit for a deposition, according to new court documents, but ruled that she can only answer questions pertaining to the lawsuit.
"In the event that Hard Candy's counsel asks any further questions beyond the scope of permissible discovery during any future depositions, Defendant’s counsel is instructed to object that the question goes beyond the scope, permit the witness to answer the question, and file a motion with the Court if Sanctions are appropriate," the ruling states.
