snipped...

If there is a sentencing hearing scheduled, that means the Motion for New Trial is moot? Not sure but I snipped a little of it.

I would think so - since the motions hearing was on 10/20 - but maybe the docket is not updated yet.

I shall move him to 10/27 & bump this thread up for you a couple of days before. Maybe the docket will something more.

And THANKS! for all that info!

9/15/23 Update: Insert Motions hearing on 10/20/23 @ 9am for new trial motion. Verdict was Adjudication Withheld. A "Withhold" is a special sentence in which the judge orders probation but does not formally convict the defendant of a criminal offense. Florida Statute s. 948.01 vests Florida judges with the authority to withhold adjudication after the judge imposes a probation sentence. Sentencing hearing on 10/20/23.
9/20/23 Update: Motion for new trial filed. Motion to transcribe. 9/22/23: Amended motion to transcribe. 9/27/23: Amended Order granting motion for incurring additional cost of forensic pathology & toxicology expert. 10/11/23: Order to transcribe-granted.

THOMPSON CHRISTIAN MARTELL
FIRST DEGREE MURDER

It appears they did everything Oct 27th but I looked at this Nov 9th and there were no changes. I wonder if they just hadn't updated the online info.
