Niner, I don't know what's going on with these cases. Maybe they are just a little slow in posting the Order Granting Motion for Continuance for the Invasion case? All the other dates coincide with each other.

Yeah - I hate court site that don't give "plain" explanations... :rolleyes: So I will change my notes to granting motion for continuance for both Carroll cases. Thanks! :)
 
As of today, they have not posted the order that grants the motion for continuance.

Blame Google if this is total nonsense :) I have not one iota of legal expertise.

A continuance is a grant of additional preparation time before or during a trial. Either the prosecution or the defense can request a continuance, and sometimes even the court can order a continuance of its own accord.

Elsewhere I read 'good cause' for a continuance would be if his attorney is unavailable due to death or he is seeking new council and that attorney would need more time.

VINElink shows he's still in Newton County jail.
 
Ok, I think the reason they left things hanging was because the clerk made a mistake and had to fix it. The Motion for Continuance was not granted on 3/10 as recorded; it was granted on Monday. The invasion of privacy charge now has the same dates as this one (bolded).

Here's the updated one:

08D01-1901-F6-000013 Strangulation, Domestic Battery

03/10/2020 = Order Granting Motion for Continuance

Oh - I'm going to "assume" that case # 08D01-1903-CM-00087 - the 2 counts of invasion of privacy. They (Carroll County) cases were being tried together back on 3/2/20 date.

and.... :D
Anything on Newton County #56D01-1904-MR-000367 - that's Nicole's murder charge.

and.... :rolleyes:
on Tippercanoe County #79D05-1902-F6-000263? That's theft charge

He's got TOO many charges against him.....

Here's some fresh baked cookies while you look those up!

And the last entry for the theft:
04/02/2019 = Warrant or Writ of Attmnt for the Body of a Person Issued

*******************************
Here's a notice from the govt posted at the top of the page; I wonder if it will impact any of our cases:
Indiana Supreme Court public access case search - MyCase
The Judicial branch is taking appropriate steps to respond to COVID-19, and courts around the state are implementing plans to postpone jury trials, allow for remote hearings, and keep only essential staff in courthouses. Learn more at courts.in.gov/covid.
 
Not too sure this is happening today since I don't have access to the court site - maybe @FrostedGlass - can check it out (when you have time!) :)

Hmmm.... they had 4/15 & I have 5/15 - but anyway - it has been cancelled & we have a new date.... too many cases I believe that I have to take care of on here! :)
 
@Tippy Lynn - if you don't mind looking this up? Talitha Beckley's trial is supposed to start tomorrow, 6/1 - is that still a go?

And I see Ashley Garth has a hearing on 6/5 - still good?

TIA! :)
