When the doors were opened again, Ellis was asked about copyright permissions he did not get for some songs that lead to the cancellation of a performance.
He was also asked about his expenditures from a booster club account.
Ellis is attempting to get his job back.
His attorney will begin calling witnesses Thursday afternoon.
