Hi AZlawyer. There are 2 new memorandums in opposition to the defendant's demurrers, in prep for the 2/19 hearing.
One issue caught my attention, and I'd appreciate your insight.
If I understand the demurrer issue correctly, this hearing is on the merit of the details in the pleadings, and does not take any of the actual discovery into account. I think that's why Dina's attorney "split out" each item and basically said "even if we concede that this one thing is true, that doesn't mean DS is responsible for Rebecca's death, and the case should be thrown out."
Greer is saying that is not the way the law requires the pleadings to be looked at, not in piecemeal fashion-- the whole picture presented in the pleadings must be evaluated. I'm interested to see how the judge rules on that.
Do you have any thoughts on that, related to the demurrer? Thanks in advance!
