The wife of Bill Cosby won a delay of her court-ordered deposition, which had been set for Wednesday in Springfield, Mass., the AP reports.

'As discussed below, I find no merit in Mrs Cosby's arguments, and accordingly deny her motion in its entirety'.

Her attorneys claim that a MA law prohibits any spouse from testifying as to their private marital conversations, but Hennessy concluded that the law only restricts testimony at a trial and not a deposition.

The deposition was delayed pending an appeal filed in the case by Cosby's legal team. It wasn't until around 4:00 p.m. Tuesday that a federal judge granted the request to postpone Wednesday's deposition, citing that denying the request would have denied her right to an appeal. She told police that Cosby proceeded to sexually assault her on a couch in the home.

He said however in his order that it would be unfair to depose her before learning the outcome of the appeal she filed with the court.

Last week, Cosby was arrested and charged in a separate case in Pennsylvania involving Andrea Constand, a former Temple University employee who claimed that he drugged and molested her at his house in suburban Philadelphia more than a decade ago. The judge agreed with her motion citing "irreparable injury" to Camille Cosby if the deposition went forward at this time. This would include past out of court settlements with past accusers of her husband. From the plaintiffs' explanation of what they hope to obtain from Camille Cosby: "There is likely no single person, other than Mr. Cosby himself, who has more knowledge of Mr. Cosby's sexual proclivities and encounters (consensual and non-consensual), as well as his use of Quaaludes and other sedatives, than Mrs. Cosby".

Constand and her mother reported the assault to Canadian police who contacted Cheltenham police who then worked with the county district attorney's office in investigating the complaint.

Among the discovery items the women are seeking are any medical records dating to 1968 of treatment Cosby may have received for "any sexual dysfunction, paraphilia, and/or fetish (such information bears upon Plaintiffs' allegations that Defendant Cosby has serially sexually assaulted semi-conscious, drugged women)", according to a legal filing.

Cosby's lawyers had argued that Camille Cosby could be embarrassed if her responses to questions about "the most intimate details of her marital life" were released publicly.

The TV icon's wife believes she shouldn't be forced to testify against her husband, while a Massachussets court has found that because of her dual role as wife and business manager, there was virtually no chance she had no idea about his predatory activities.
