I wonder who wants the records unsealed and why? Or is that a request from the media?

I can't tell who filed it but since JM is going to retry the case, I suspect the defense is looking for any weapon they can hurl. Could be wrong but can't think of any other reason. I didn't look through the page listing of minutes but the last one is granting probation, nothing sealed about that one, don't know what's in the others (yet, until my curiousty gets the best of me lol).

I understand the part about retrying on the murder and animal cruelty, but why wait for sentencing on the charge RC is in for now.

Is Granville too afraid to give a sentence and that he would be serving too long if found guilty on the other 2 charges?

Hey Jewels! IMO it has something to do with defense motions and they still have to go through those, b/c I believe there's a hearing on the motions, and then sentencing. I think the defense needed more time 'cause it probably has some stuff up its sleeve regarding Elvira......to try to lessen the impact of the 'emotional harm aggravating factor.'

Sigh. As we know, defenses try to lengthen it out as long as they possibly can......

It's just the minute entry laying out the change in scheduling from the 18th until sentencing:

Thanks, Jewels.

From the minutes:

Last day issues regarding Counts 1 and 3 shall be addressed at the hearing on November
1, 2013.
LAST DAY REMAINS: November 15, 2013 as to Counts 1 and 3.

What does "last day" mean? Are they saying that on November 15, the new trial start date will be set?

I think it means the last day to object to the going forward to another trial. At least that is what I think it means. Now I don't know if the Prosecution can set those kind of dead lines or not. I would think it would be up to the judge?

Juan filed an objection to defense's request to unseal the documents regarding the marijuana case against Daniel Rodriguez’s mom, Elvira Fernandez. What has Elvira's case got to do with her son's murder case?

I guess we just never know what the defense's motives are for wanting that information unsealed. I can't see what that has to do with the case at hand. Maybe we will find out at the next hearing?

I tried posting this last night when the site went a.w.o.l., glad we're back up.

Anyways, the other night I mentioned to hub about the motion JA filed to fire her attny and he asked me 'They have to file a motion for that?' I said they file motions for practically everything....and then last night I came upon this on RC's docket:

10/25/2013 MOT - Motion - Party (001) 10/25/2013
NOTE: Motion for Clothing

They really do file motions for just about everything. lol

Sorry to be quoting you again, though I went to look at the court records both on Chrisman and Elvira's case. Maybe Danny was involved in his mother's case, even though it didn't show up on the online court records. I am just taking a guess though.

I can't find anything on Daniel Rodriguez in the Maricopa County court system.

I am not sure why the defense wants these unsealed. I looked up Elvira's court records and I am not sure what it has to do with Danny's case. Unless they want to impeach her.

That is all I can think of.

so there is a hearing and sentencing on the 1st?

i am so not up to date in things here :facepalm:
 
  • #1,137
I guess they think it can help them somehow Jewels, I don't see it either though.

Oral arguments on the 1st and 13th, sentencing on the 22nd, at least that's the schedule right now, Josie. Don't know if the hearings will be streamed live or later, we'll have to wait till court day and see if any links pop up, I suppose.

No idea why I thought sentencing was on the 1st,got my dates all mixed up lately

Happy Halloween, all!
