Trial continues with Garth Brooks' testimony

CLAREMORE, Okla. - Country music superstar Garth Brooks took the stand in a Claremore courtroom Friday as part of his lawsuit against the state's largest hospital system.

This is the third day of testimony in the trial.

The lawsuit stems from a $500,000 donation Brooks made to the Integris Health System with what he says was the belief that a women's clinic would be named after his mother, Colleen Brooks.

Brooks became emotional on the stand while speaking of his deceased parents.

Hospital administrators say they never made a formal agreement with Brooks.

Their attorney showed the jury emails indicating a friendly relationship that quickly turned sour.

Here, Brooks discusses those emails and Integris' Vice President of Communications Hardy Watkins responds:

"That's a very nice email, saying I'm giving you a chance, come forward, and we will talk about that tomorrow," said Brooks.

"We were never able to get to an agreement so we couldn't spend the money, because we didn't want to disappoint the donor, Mr. Brooks and the generous gift," said Watkins.

Brooks is asking for Integris to return the donation and pay his attorney's fees.

The trial is expected to last until Tuesday.
