Attorney says Browns owner Jimmy Haslam can be deposed with conditions

NASHVILLE, Tenn.: Cleveland Browns owner Jimmy Haslam has agreed to be deposed under specific conditions in civil lawsuits against the truck-stop chain owned by him and his brother, Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam, according to court documents.

Jimmy Haslam attorney Stephen Brody wrote Friday that Haslam and his attorneys are willing to go forward “as long as the deposition proceeds in the orderly manner outlined below” and are “eager to put it behind us,” according to The Tennessean.

Brody specified that one deposition involving all cases must occur during one seven-hour day.

Jimmy Haslam had been ordered to be deposed next Wednesday in a lawsuit filed by Mobile, Alabama-based Wright Transportation.
