This has become tiresome.
The Defense said they were ready.
Based on the information she had, the judge scheduled the trial for three weeks. Factoring time for both sides to present.
Apparently no one objected. At that time.
When the Defense did object, at the 11th hour, they commandeered a readiness hearing iirc to announce to the judge they needed substantially more time. The judge asked for an accounting. It's the State's job to prove guilt BARD. Rare case that a Defense's case in chief would take longer than the State's! The Defense responded by saying they couldn't tell her exactly because blah blah blah missing discovery (wait! I thought they were ready for trial! If they're not ready, why aren't they filing for a continuance? Oh. Because that might look bad, considering they testified UNDER OATH to SCOIN that, if SCION didn't reinstate them as RA's counsel, his right to a speedy trial was in jeopardy. Because they alone were posited to go swiftly to trial. But now they're not. So how do they finagle it so the Court authors the delay? Demand more time because of their suddenly robust Defense which they've yet to substantiate.)
They can't defend needing more time to present their case. As of now, they haven't been able to secure a third-party Defense. They claim they're ready for trial, need more time to present but can't show why, claim there's discovery they haven't received or can't find, want the judge to recuse for old and new reasons, most of which SCION already dismissed/rejected, allege judicial misconduct over hearings they weren't granted (where hearings weren't warranted!).
They are the ones creating acrimony!
IMO they need a reset.
