geevee, did you notice that the mitigation specialist is now listed as TBD? Hmmm...no more cha cha Maria, I guess...

Under the attorney column? I think it's always been like that, not even sure why it's TBD instead of N/A, does a mit. specialist need a lawyer? Maybe a Fashion Attorney to counsel her client on What Not To Wear in Court. :facepalm:

I think you are right Geevee. Seems as if it has always been TBD.

I would really like to read CNN's objection to the motion to limit media coverage. The arguments presented in the motion were so weak and it would be interesting to see them dismantled. Nurmi took the same approach in his motions as he did in court; throw up enough unsubstantiated claims and hope that no one is informed enough to know the difference.

Do you think the 9/09 'Defendant's motion to preclude..' is a rerun of the motion filed earlier or did Nurmi update it?

I've been trying to figure that out. The DT does have the opportunity to respond to objections, so this may be their response. I have noticed on several occasions where the filing date appears to be later than the actual submission date, so it is possible that Nurmi received the objection sometime last week and responded to it, with both docs hitting the docket on the same day.

This would be my best guess for what is being seen on the docket.

Sounds reasonable.

I feel like a starving Swede at a cordoned smorgasbord.

 

[Liebchenmutti]

It has. Sue Stodola has always been listed as the Mitigation Specialist & that woman from trial was never listed. I suppose Stodola is the head of the department for mitigation?

Maybe the mitigation specialists are assigned & scheduled like the lawyers are, so when the date for trial is set, one will be assigned? Thinking out loud here.

 

[MeeBee]

Nevermind I'm all bamboozled. I got my columns mixed up. I didn't see that Sue Stodola's name was still there and the TBD column was for representing attorneys.

I feel special now. Sorry for the confusion...

Wow, this is an interesting one on the docket today:

9/11/2013 OBJ - Objection/Opposition. - Party (001) 9/12/2013
NOTE: OBJECTION TO MOTION TO PRECLUDE PENALTY PHASE REBUTTAL EVIDENCE RELATED TO EXPERT WITNESS DR. CHERYL KARP

I don't recall the original motion? What I do remember is DeMarte saying that more than 20 incidents of domestic violence were related to Karp by CMJA versus only 4 to ALV. This discrepancy was one of the reasons DeMarte gave for discounting CMJA's claims.

 

[Ricki]

So, is the defense team now trying to keep incriminating evidence that was presented at the trial out of the penalty phase?

Huh - Dr. Karp wasn't an 'expert witness' in this trial (and the only motion about psychological witnesses was the nunc pro tunc one, but I don't understand that term so don't know what exactly it refers to).

Could they plan to call Dr. Karp and try to increase the amount of DV and that whole line of BS because she told Karp that?

The defense doesn't want the info that Jodi lied to Dr. Karp about the amount of DV that supposedly happened. She was an expert that the defense planned on using until she got sick & had to drop out. I guess that's when ALV came in.

I can't see how they can keep that out--it was Jodi's own witness who did lengthy interviews with her...I guess the defense is throwing everything at the wall.

 

[gcharlie]

So from this objection which clearly reads penalty phase on the docket, can it be inferred that some sort of outline of the penalty phase is being hammered out by opposing counsel?

That sounds right, I still think it sounds odd her being called a witness when she didn't testify, but maybe that's just semantics.
