Cole: But the only thing the DA said is "if he is not goanna give up his plane<br />

then I'm going to change this from 720A08 to 720A15" which he did<br />

the very next morning anyway.<br />

Malatesta: Make sure I don't mix it up. You had an agreement regardless <strong>of</strong> what all the<br />

parameters were you had an agreement with opening –<br />

Cole: the options.<br />

Malatesta: Right all the options you had an agreement with an open sentence and basically the<br />

DA backed out.<br />

Cole: RIGHT.<br />
