OMG OMG I am so excited!! But kicking myself I didn't get that DVR yet.
That's a really good question. I wonder if CM has come to the end of his patience with Baez. I'd think that Baez's describing CM as being 'equally confused if not moreso' (not exact quote) than himself in the email to Judge P's assistant could not have been pleasant to learn of, then have repeated across the media for days. I think CM was chagrined when the initial sanctions were called for and then ordered. Perhaps CM will no longer be sitting back in his chair and staring into space while Baez runs wild (lol) in the courtroom.
I suppose there is the possibility that CM is somewhat complicit in these tactics and drafting of motions. But somehow, I think not.
Does anyone think CM will soon wrest control of the case before Baez drives himself and their case into a wall?

Casey Anthony's attorney, Jose Baez, is firing back at prosecutors' motion suggesting that he be held in contempt of court.
In his own motion to strike the request, Baez accuses prosecutor Jeff Ashton of asking the court to require the defense "filings that are not required by any rule, case law or statute in order to assist him in the preparation of his case."
Ashton claimed that Baez missed a court ordered-deadline to inform the state of objections he plans to raise in hearings this week.
In his motion, Baez said Ashton "does not want to do the work required."

MM posted some more docs in the motions thread. This one caught my attention - first time I'm hearing about this http://www.docstoc.com/docs/72634895/20110228-Sworn-Affidavit---William-Slabaugh
This is a sworn affidavit from a person in JB's office saying they didn't receive a copy of the state's motion.
If JB's office did not receive a copy of the Motion for Rule to Show Cause does it become invalid?
How are you feeling today? Any fever yet?
AHEM...An Affidavit from the same lawyer who was THWARTED by traffic and couldn't get to the courthouse by 5pm closing, he arrived a few minutes after closing, to submit a filing that by Court Order was due at 12 Noon...
Pipitone predicted the hearings, which continue Thursday, could spill into Friday.
Pipitone also reported that a contempt-of-court issue against Baez — for failing to meet a court-ordered deadline — maybe be worked out before a hearing is necessary. Pipitone said the state and defense are trying to work out the disagreement by exchanging paperwork on the matter.
Is Strawberry sick, too? Come join me on the sofa, where I'll have the volume turned way up to hear the TV over my cough that developed overnight. No fever here yet & hopefully none to come.
I wish I could figure out my DVR too, LOL.:innocent:

Well, right now, I have to buy myself a new chair. Seems that I have picked up Judge Perry's habit of rocking... except mine is a little more violent since the arm on the left side of the chair is dangling right now. I am going to have to bring in a dining room chair for the hearings tomorrow and Thursday. I am 100% serious! :floorlaugh:
Someone told me folks are planning nightly trial parties downtown to go over each days events. Wow! I can only imagine what it's going to be like down there during the trial.
Wow, just wow, this is what JB handed over to get himself out of sanctions:
