9/30/21: Notice of Hearing: Motion hearing set for 10/13/21 @ 9am. Status hearing on 10/21 taken off court site. 10/2/21 Update: Added motions hearing on 10/26/21. 10/8/21: Notice of taking depositions.
10/13/21 Update: Bench conference held. Motion in Limine to prohibit mention at trial to the translated meaning of the German word "Todt". State does not object-Motion granted. Motion to prohibit shackling or other restraint at trial-motion granted. Motion in Limine to prohibit reference during trial testimony "to the victims' murder" or "the murder scene". State takes no position-motion granted. Witnesses & experts prohibited from using those specific terms. Motion to prohibit introduction of cadaver photos of the deceased victims. Defense objection as to particular exhibits placed on the record. The youngest child, Zoe, also had a stuffed animal: Todt’s defense argued the jury shouldn’t see that. "I think the fact that you’re showing stuffed rabbit animals is designed solely to elicit sympathy on the part of jurors," an attorney said. The judge decided those pictures are relevant to the case, including providing clues about how long Todt stayed in the home with his family’s bodies. Motion to exclude individual photo exhibits-denied. Placed on the record evidence reviewed & entered State exhibits #1-6 under seal for purposes of this case. Next status hearing on 10/18/21.

<snipped> Motion in Limine to prohibit mention at trial to the translated meaning of the German word "Todt". <snipped>

I may have missed this or forgotten it but, according to Google, "Todt" translates to "dead" in German.
