Westerfield's attorney tried to withdraw once the funds ran out and the judge said no way Jose (pun intended). I don't think it's a withdrawal issue. Not sure what the heck it is.

MOO

I just had a light bulb moment .....
Maybe Jose had a real moment slip yesterday about the OOPs statement to STRIKE THE JUDGE.....

maybe wife or kid in hospital, an emergency? I can see the court not able to talk about something personal, and the judge upset over any delay.

That could be, but how does HHJP know that court could resume tomorrow at 8:30

Motion argued by Fryer -

"waa waa we don't like how you're doing the jury selection, here's some case law on judges abusing their powers - you know kinda like you"

Denied

Pot juror questioned

Side bar

Recess

Side bar

Pot juror tossed out by state (although I thought he was a smoothy)

Judge Perry advising being tossed out of court by end of today/ then told by Judge Perry they were to be given till Saturday

Opening remarks to start Monday at 9 am IF there is a a jury


Long long long lunch

Somewhere in there Baez told us all what a great guy he is because when he took this case he swore, like for realz, pinkie swears and everything, that he would get ICA a fair trial.

We all got our hankies out, it was quite touching, ahem...


Return from lunch

Judge Perry says did you discuss that matter with your client

holds his hand up as if to say, easy, easy, don't go too far

Mason - yes we did your honor.

JPerry - court in recess till 830am


END of Day - all hell breaks out on forum

Apparently Baez went home at lunch, was seen driving away all other defense attorneys in having lunch at cafeteria - Baez did not come back to court.

:tyou: darnudes

The thread is moving fast I wanted to bump this info up.

:bump:
 
Ok, this is a death penalty case and JB is not death qualified so I can't see why JB has to be present when CM was brought on for that very reason...if JB can't continue why does ICA get to choose????? Color me confused as usual. Something is going on and I don't think it is a plea....he asked if he discussed "the matter" with ICA and CM said yes and then it was over....what on earth???:banghead:
 
Okay, I was just thinking if for some reason, JB is off the case - that might present a problem if none of the other lawyers would not agree to being lead counsel. Mason has already said he does not have the stamina for it. And Finnell has been concentrating on the penalty phase. And Ms Simms...well...Ms Simms....
 
Ok wait, I just reviewed the judge, he didn't look made, he was shaken, anxious too, I hope those are the right words I choose. Look at his body as he was about to stand, the face, the hands, he was shaken. Something is bad.

wait a minute

Yesterday when DT went into closed room with ICA she came out crying..you could tell she was crying, this is when the DT came out and used their next to last strike.

Then this morning that big motion the judge denied

Then recess (which was late)

Then they come back and long lunch

MOO JB wanted on the record that he was only doing what he thought he should do to give his client a fair trial.

ICA was crying this tells me maybe she didn't want JB gone, so I don't think she fired her

This leaves open to having to do with GA and CA lawsuit recently?

The bar?

Or, perhaps JB fell on his sword over something their investigator did. remember all of a sudden he showed up in court? What if the state found out and brought it to the judge in behind doors. What if that last juror, it was learned he was a stealth Juror and the DT got caught so JB fell on his sword.

That is exactly what I just thought too. Maybe not the last guy but possibly something up with jury tampering? God only knows what is going on.

I really hope someone in the press followed JB as he took off to see just where he was going.
 
IS is now reading HHBP's demeanor . . . wonder if they saw the same hand up (caution) to CM if he wanted to add any more . . . . just prior to recess.
 
They truly ARE at the end of their hallway, aren't they?
 
The judge was seething (imo) he wouldn't be that worked up over an appeal, Jose falling ill or a plea deal.
 
They can ask, but they must continue to represent the client until the judge approves.

Correct. But surely that motion would be heard or at least announced in open court.
 
So here I rush home from work to catch the afternoon session only to find out it's over for the day?!!! WTH is going on?
