And another trial delay coming up. And who is paying for all these various attorneys? Will these delays ever stop?

If I recall correctly, the judge already told her no more delays -- even if she managed to get another attorney.

It appears her new atty needs more time and has requested it. Let's see if the judge hangs tough.

Unbelievable. Much as I hate to think, I don’t think he can deny the request. But IANAL. Thinking if it puts the new attorney at a disadvantage, which could well be argued, the (insert your favorite words here)…. of their client can’t be held against them. And would probably be a key appellate issue?

So, did the client SB finally realize she dug a hole too deep she can’t fill? What a circus of disgust for the legal system. SMH. MOO

According to court records, Boone is now being represented by an attorney named James Owens.

According to court records, the defense council was retained after responding to Boone's advertisement, something the woman drew up shortly after parting with a different attorney.

"Looking for a prosperous challenge? Ready for your close-up on nat'l television? Are you zealous with a side of keen," the flier read.

Hoping for no further delays. I would assume Mr. Owens is ready for his close-up.
