A federal judge has denied a request by lawyers for Camille Cosby, Bill Cosby's wife of more than 50 years, to be excused from an upcoming deposition for a civil case against the famed comedian. In early December, lawyers for seven Bill Cosby accusers suing the entertainer for defamation in Massachusetts federal court had subpoenaed Camille Cosby. Bill Cosby filed a defamation countersuit against the women on Dec. 14.
