Bill Cosby's wife Camille fighting attempts to get her to answer more questions in defamation suit - including about her sex life with her disgraced husband

Bill Cosby's wife says she shouldn't be subjected to 'outrageous question' about her sex life and other deeply personal topics in a defamation lawsuit filed by seven women who say the comedian sexually assaulted them decades ago.

But a lawyer for the women has asked a judge to step in to make sure Camille Cosby answers more questions in the legal case.

Camille Cosby sat for the first part of a deposition last month; a second session is scheduled for April 18.

A federal judge ruled last month that she had to testify in the deposition but didn't have to answer questions that fell under the Massachusetts marital disqualification rule, which says a spouse doesn't have to testify about private marital conversations.

Her lawyers have since asked a judge to terminate the deposition, or at least limit it, citing 'a litany of improper and offensive questions' asked during the first session by the women's attorney, Joseph Cammarata. 

They said the questions related to Camille Cosby's 'own sexual relations, her own political commentary and the death of the Cosbys' son in 1997, among others.' 

Ennis Cosby, 27, was shot and killed during a robbery attempt.

'These questions were irrelevant to the issues in this case and plainly were designed to annoy, embarrass, and oppress the witness,' Camille Cosby's lawyers argued in a court filing Friday.

Her lawyers claim Cammarata repeatedly sought irrelevant testimony from Cosby about her opinion of the honesty and integrity of her husband.

Cammarata, however, has asked the court to appoint Magistrate Judge David Hennessy to preside over the remainder of Cosby's deposition to deter what he calls 'deposition misconduct' by her and her attorney, Monique Pressley.

Cammarata says Cosby refused to answer dozens of questions based on an overly broad interpretation of the marital disqualification rule, attorney-client privilege and a 'non-existent' privilege of privacy.

'Judge Hennessy's presence is necessary to deter Mrs. Cosby from further interfering with her own deposition,' Cammarata wrote in a court filing Monday.

In the transcript of her deposition given in February, Camille said she learned of Constand's allegations through her husband, and said she was aware that he had given a deposition in the case.

However, when the lawyer for the seven women asked whether she had read the deposition Bill gave in the Constand case, she simply answered: 'No'.

He continued to grill her about her knowledge of his sworn testimony, finally asking: 'Sitting here today you have no understanding of what topics or what statements your husband made at the deposition; is that your testimony?'

She replied with a curt: 'That is my testimony.'

The back-and-forth between Camille Cosby's lawyers and Cammarata later became combative.

When Cammarata asked her whether she had a discussion with her husband about the substance of his deposition testimony in the Andrea Constand case, Camille initially said she didn't want to answer before saying: 'That is just communication between my husband and me.'

After her lawyer advised her that she can answer 'yes' or 'no' to whether she had discussed it without divulging what was said, Camille Cosby answered, 'Yes,' saying she did discuss his deposition testimony with him.

But when Cammarata asked her when it happened, who might have been around during the conversation, where it took place, how long they talked or what they talked about, Camille said she didn't not remember.   

Tamara Green filed the Massachusetts lawsuit in December 2014. She was later joined by six other women who say Cosby sexually assaulted or abused them and defamed them by calling them liars. 

Cosby denies their allegations.

More than 50 women have publicly accused Bill, who is best known for his role as the father in the 1980s television hit The Cosby Show, of raping them, often after plying them with alcohol or drugs, in incidents dating back decades.

Most of the alleged crimes date too far back to be prosecuted. But just days before the statute of limitations was to expire, Pennsylvania officials late last year charged Cosby with sexually assaulting Constand in 2005.

DailyMail.com previously reported that Camille is adamant she did not supply her husband with the prescription sedatives he is accused of using to drug and sexually assault women - and that is why she asked to not be deposed in the suit.

The seven women who have filed the suit against Cosby - Green, Therese Serignese, Linda Traitz, Louisa Moritz, Barbara Bowman, Joan Tarshis and Angela Leslie - have accused him of defaming them in the press by calling them all liars.

Cosby then countersued, accusing the women of conspiring to ruin his now-cancelled entertainment projects and insisted they made up their stories of abuse.

The women's attorney wanted to question Camille about what she knew about her husband's extra-martial activities over the past five decades.

Bill's legal team fired back saying his wife had no first-hand knowledge of the allegations in the lawsuit.

'Information that was the subject of confidential communications between Mrs. Cosby and defendant is protected by Massachusetts' spousal disqualification rule,' the lawyers claimed, and demanded Camille not be ordered to take the deposition under oath next month.

But the women argued that Camille was Cosby's business manager and did have relevant information to help them with their case.

Camille blasted the women's attempt to depose her in the documents that were filed in January, arguing first that the law is very clear about a husband and wife not having to testify against another or share information from private conversations.

Judge Hennessy said in his ruling however that he found 'no merit in Mrs Cosby's argument'.

She also asked the judge to not order her to sit for a deposition in the case because it would be an undue burden on her and invade her rights to privacy and claims her husband has decided to not drag her into his counter-suit to testify.

Judge Hennessy wrote in his ruling about; 'I reject Mrs. Cosby's argument that her subpoena should be quashed on the grounds that it presents an undue burden.' 

Camille contends she wasn't present during any of the alleged incidents and anything she heard would be second hand knowledge or from a private conversations with her husband.

That statement however contradicts information given a year ago by Carla Ferrigno, wife of The Incredible Hulk star Lou Ferrigno.

Carla told DailyMail.com that Camille was present in the home when she was attacked by Cosby.

After a night out with Cosby and his wife Camille, they went to Cosby's home in Los Angeles where Camille retired, her date left the room and Cosby tried to have his way with the then 18-year-old.
