It looks like the multiple motions hearing for Thompson happened yesterday but the docket has not been updated to reflect any new dates yet. It only has the trial date of 5/27/21 as the next hearing. I will check again this week to see if it updates and let you know.

On another note, Shanon Short’s docket still shows 8/12/20 as a multiple motions hearing.

 

[Niner]

Thanks for the info!

 

[Suglo]

Thanks for the info!

I just checked again. No new dates for Christian M Thompson other than his trial date next May. I’ll check back on the 12th to see if the docket gets updated once Shanon Short’s motions are heard.

 

[Niner]

Okay - thanks @Suglo !

The multiple motion hearing for Shanon Short was done virtually yesterday at 1:30 pm. The motion heard was for “Defendant’s Motion for Return of Property.” Not sure what property they are talking about. There is no disposition on the docket yet though. It still has 10/26/2020 at 8:30 am for jury selection. I’ll check back in a few days to see if there are any updates to her docket.

As to Christian M Thompson they have set another status hearing on 10/7/2020 at 8:30 am.

I was on the Polk County site for another case and went over to Shannon Short. Here is her Case Summary as of today. Maybe the missing property info will be uploaded tomorrow since it just happened today. It's a big PDF so I compressed it and will upload in pieces.

Thank you both @Suglo & @PayrollNerd for all that info.

I'm wondering "why" I have Thompson as having trial start on 5/17/21 & the documents posted says his trial starts 10/26/20??

That is her trial date. His docket still says that his trial date is not until 5/17/21. They don’t always have the same hearings either so the cases are not being heard together all the time.

Okay - it looks like @PayrollNerd posted the attachment under Thompson, Short's info, not his - that's why I got it all mixed up....

Oh no! I’m so sorry for flipping the info. I have a busy day today but hope to be able to get back online tonight. I’ll check again if no one else has.

No rush!
You posted Short's correctly, just post Short's stuff again labeled as Thompson....

Just want the next court date for Short! LOL!

 

[PayrollNerd]

There are no documents available yet but I downloaded Christian Thompson's Case Summary as of today. It's a big PDF so I compressed it and will upload in pieces. Verified at least 3 times I have the right document. I must have named something incorrectly when I was downloading the other day. That's what happens when I do stuff when I'm tired. My bad.
