Ah - thought it would be postponed... Thanks @PayrollNerd - I'll check back in maybe a week to see if there might be a hearing before than!

 

[Niner]

Hey @PayrollNerd - maybe a hearing set yet?

TIA!

 

[PayrollNerd]

I can't see any changes. I would think the Docket verbiage would be updated since it's been moved to May but apparently they have nothing to add.

Here is the verbiage from that big paragraph for easier reading:

STATUS CONFERENCE HELD BY PHONE. STATUS CONFERENCE CONTINUED TO 3/29/2021 AT 9:00 AM. TRIAL CONTINUED TO 05/10/2021 AT 9:00 AM. THE TRIAL OF THIS MATTER IS CONTINUED TO A FUTURE DATE. THIS CONTINUANCE IS REQUIRED FOR THE ADMINISTRATION OF JUSTICE. DUE TO THE CONTINUED RISK OF COMMUNITY SPREAD OF THE COVID-19 VIRUS, AND IN ORDER TO MAINTAIN THE SAFETY OF THE PUBLIC, COURT EMPLOYEES, LITIGANTS, ATTORNEYS, AND OTHERS WHOSE BUSINESS IS AT THE JUSTICE CENTER, THE COURT, BY ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER, HAS LIMITED ITS OPERATIONS AND SET PARAMETERS FOR THE SELECTION OF CASES FOR JURY TRIAL. THE ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER IS INTENDED TO ALLOW THE COURT TO SAFELY AND REASONABLY CONTINUE OPERATIONS. THE COURT HAS CONSIDERED REASONABLE ALTERNATIVES TO CONDUCTING JURY TRIALS IN AREAS OTHER THAN THE JUSTICE CENTER. HOWEVER, THE SERIOUS THREAT TO THE PUBLIC HEALTH IS GOOD CAUSE TO CONTINUE THIS JURY TRIAL. CASES OF COVID-19 CONTINUE TO REMAIN AT HIGH LEVELS, PLACING CUYAHOGA COUNTY IN THE PUBLIC ALERT LEVEL OF RED. THIS ORDER CONSIDERS BOTH THE DEFENDANT'S STATUTORY AND CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS TO A SPEEDY JURY TRIAL, AND DETERMINES THAT A CONTINUANCE OF TRIAL WHICH SUPERSEDES A DEFENDANT'S SPEEDY TRIAL RIGHT IS HEREBY CONSIDERED PERMISSIBLE BY ALL JUDGES OF THE GENERAL DIVISION UNDER THE OHIO CONSTITUTION AND O.R.C. 2945.72 (H) AS A "REASONABLE CONTINUANCE GRANTED OTHER THAN UPON THE ACCUSED'S OWN MOTION." BASED UPON THE FOREGOING, AND FOR GOOD CAUSE SHOWN, THE TIME BETWEEN 02/03/2021 THROUGH 05/09/2021 WILL NOT BE COUNTED WHEN CALCULATING DEFENDANT'S SPEEDY TRIAL TIME. 01/21/2021 CPJSX 03/29/2021 14:54:49
