I moved in October and still have boxes to unpack. Chillax my friend!!:seeya:
Are we on juror number 1, 2 or 3?
I think that is a huge threat to the counsel to speed it up or else! One of the things attorneys who are trial lawyers treasure the most is their freedom at the end of a very busy day. HHJP went after something very precious to them -- their free time. I have actually tried cases in criminal courts that went past midnight. Been there. Done that. HHJP could do that. I doubt he will be that extreme in handling jurors at the start of a serious criminal case. The appellate courts take a dim view of trial courts continuing into the wee hours of the morning because of competency of counsel issues that arise. HHJP doesn't want to build in issues like ICA's attorneys were not competent on voir dire of some juror because they were too tired and worn out. There's a range though between continuing past 5:00 p.m. (normal close of business) and an extreme of continuing through 3:00 a.m. -- but where to draw the dividing line is unclear. Surely, he can and will go well after 5:00 p.m.. I'd come back with a sandwich and drink in my briefcase for my post 5:00 p.m. dinner. But, this is clearly a boot in the behinder to get it moving. The fact that he said he only had one court reporter today is probably a clue that the outside limit is whatever overtime period the court reporter is willing to do. It could come down to that. For example, if the court reporter isn't willing to go past 8:00 p.m. or something, then that is when court will end.Pertaining to the Judge's little speech.
Anyone think HHJP really will make them stay until all 37 done today? I don't.
DO NOT SAY THAT "MOVING" WORD TO ME. I am still moving. The movers moved me on 4/29 - but I am still moving "STUFF" .....EVERY DAY I MOVE STUFF. I am sick of stuff. I am almost to the point that I am going to leave the rest of my STUFF for somebody else to move out.
Hello, my name is TotallyObsessed and EVIDENTLY I am a hoarder.
Is the trial over yet ?
one 1340
JB just created grounds for appeal all morning long.
KC does this thing when she stands up. She balls her fists and holds her bent arms out and looks around by her feet, looking confused. It looks like she's trying to play Disney (or maybe Universal, lol) princess, holding her gown up and looking at the woodland creatures gathered by her feet. I know this sounds odd but if you watch for it I think you'll see what I mean.
Anyway it's annoying because I can really see that she's "acting" innocent/confused.
Jean C is saying that they are thinking he is a stealth juror. He seems too perfect.
