9/27/22: Motion praecipe filed for hearing on 10/19/22. 10/5/22: MiFile proof of service filed (3). People's response filed to Motion to Suppress/Quash. 10/14/22: Notice of hearing filed. Request/Notice-Film/Media coverage filed. 10/18/22: Request/Notice-Film/Media coverage filed.
10/19/22 Update: Defense Motion to Suppress: Attorney Ellen Michaels argued on behalf of Galloway Jr. on Wednesday in the motion hearing claiming that her attorney-client privilege has been violated because of information shared to the police. Tuesday was the first court appearance since Aug. 17, 2022 when his attorneys were denied a request to view more evidence. Judge Phyllis McMillen ruled that all relevant information had been turned over to both the defense & prosecution. The topic of Wednesday's hearing is regarding privileged information that Galloway's attorney claims was inappropriately shared, specifically a lie detector test that was shared between government agencies. Michaels argued on Wednesday that information being shared between law enforcement officials had violated Galloway's due process - an allegation that stems from the discovery of several search warrants that had been executed in relation to Galloway. She argues that her attorney-client privilege was in jeopardy because of a lie detector test that was done & shared with Troy Police Chief Gary Mayer, who then shared it with Farmington Hills Police. Order filed: Hold defendant. After hearing arguments from Michaels, as well as Assistant Attorney General Danielle Russo Bennett who is prosecuting the case, McMillen said she will make her decision by next week. Both sides said they will file with the Court of Appeals if the judge’s ruling doesn’t go their way, but for now the trial is scheduled to start on 11/28/22.
10/26/22: Proceeding to be held in-person. Trial date changed from 11/28/22 to 3/28/23 @ 8:30am. Adjourn for investigation/discovery.
11/17/22 Update: Judge Phyllis C. McMillen has ruled to suppress key evidence in the murder case because of how it was obtained. The decision to suppress the evidence surrounds attorney-client privilege. Galloway allegedly made an admission to the person who was conducting a lie detector test on behalf of his then-attorney. That alleged admission made its way back to investigators, who used the information to seize key evidence in the case. Because of how it was obtained, that evidence will not be presented during Galloway’s murder trial. The judge concluded that police intentionally intruded on the privileged relationship & used the information to locate & seize evidence. The judge said, “the court finds the actions of the government were outrageous.” During the test, Galloway allegedly admitted to the murder, stating Stislicki’s body was wrapped in a brown & beige comforter, revealed what he had done with Stislicki’s keys, Fitbit & phone, and provided details about a taxi cab ride he took afterward. As for evidence seized from search warrants that were based on the privileged information, Judge McMillen directed attorneys from both sides to submit analyses of the warrants & evidence seized. She said she’ll then decide if there was probable cause for the search warrants without the privileged information.
11/22/22: MiFIle proof of service filed. Motion filed stay open & Order//PLF. 12/7/22: MiFile proof of service filed. 12/8/22: Order filed Grant Motion to stay proceedings. Final disposition. 12/8/22 Update: Case disposed. The Judge Ruled in December to suppress the evidence because of how the evidence was obtained by LE. The AG appealed the ruling because they lost, therefore the case gets disposed at the Circuit Court & goes to the Appellate Docket until the appeal process is complete & then back to circuit for trial. 2/9/23: Order filed COA. Either a motions hearing or trial is set to begin on 3/28/23.

Extended to 4/6/23.
4/4/23 Update: Judge Phyllis McMillen ruled Wednesday to suppress evidence against an accused murderer, concluding that allowing it would violate the accused due process rights. Prosecutors will not be able to use information from & evidenced seized as a direct result of a lie detector test given to Galloway by his defense team as part of the investigation into the disappearance of Danielle. Evidence seized from search warrants "that contained or (were) built upon the privileged information" will be determined at a different time. Judge McMillen denied without prejudice defense attorney Ellen Michaels' motion to have the case against Galloway dismissed entirely. 4/6/23: State’s appellant motion on ruling of suppressing evidence.
