Since this week is likely to be a bit slow Court-wise... I figured it would be another great opportunity to do an open thread. Feel free to discuss what you'd like as long as it pertains to the trial of Harlow Cuadra and Joseph Kerekes.
Some interesting things that have happened over the past week, that may help in getting some good discussions going:
- The district attorney’s office is asking for conflict counsel to replace the public defenders’ office because a similar issue almost caused a mistrial in the William Rohland death penalty case earlier this year. Judge Olszewski is concerned new counsel could delay the case further. The judge plans to rule on the issue in the future.
- Bufalino and Kerekes’ other attorneys, Shelley Centini and John Pike, said prosecutors did not present enough evidence at a preliminary hearing to take Kerekes to trial. They want the homicide and other charges dismissed.
- Harlow and Joe's house hits the 'short sale'... can they sell before foreclosure?

I'll be posting a very detailed "Year in Review" by the end of the week, it'll certainly be a comprehensive list... so be sure to stay tuned. As always, if/when something newsworthy actually does occur beforehand, I'll post it immediately.
