Days after Cosby filed a defamation lawsuit against seven women who accused him of sexual assault, his lawyers are fighting a subpoena for his wife's deposition. An attorney for the seven women has subpoenaed Camille Cosby to be deposed on January 6 in Springfield, Massachusetts. In return, Cosby's attorneys filed papers in a federal court in the same state Friday, saying Camille Cosby should not have to give a deposition because she has no "first-hand knowledge" of the women's claims. 'Unnecessary, unreasonable' Bill Cosby's attorneys said information from the couple's private conversations is privileged. The seven women said they subpoenaed Camille Cosby because she was her husband's business manager, according to Cosby's attorneys.
