[Niner]

Hmm.... Mathis has a "final" pretrial hearing but no trial date set... strange!
And I'm guessing there is not another date for Garth since you didn't post it!

I'll bump thread in a week!

 

[Niner]

Until I hear from @Tippy Lynn - I'll post this for today. Maybe you can find Garth's next hearing too? TIA!

for Garth:

So - I'm guessing she plead guilty....

 

[janewall]

for Garth:

So - I'm guessing she plead guilty....

If so, I'm sure that's a relief for NB's family. Trying to attend court dates and trials for so many defendants would be exhausting and traumatic IMO.

 

[Niner]

@Tippy Lynn - when you have time - could you see if Mathis has a next court date? Last was on 6/22.

TIA!
