When Do You Think The Retrial Will Begin?

[ElleElle]

I read they'll start selecting the jury on Mar 17th but the trial won't begin until sometime in early April.

Can JSS just rule without a jury?

 

[ElleElle]

Pure guesswork on my part too; you've nailed it. When this judge delays, she doesn't delay by few days, she delays by weeks and months. I guess the Arizona State prison will not see the improvements implemented by Jodi until much much later. Those prisoners may have to wait until 2015 before they can recycle, join book clubs, learn proper English and Spanish, donate their hair, fight against domestic violence, and do other activities Jodi may decide once she gets there.

One of my new year's resolution is to become less cynical but I'm failing big time.

I suppose that's the oral argument JSKS will hear a week from tomorrow.

And I further predict that those proceedings will be -- like just about everything else after the mistrial was declared -- sealed up as tight as a drum.

Cruel and unusual indeed...

As her attorneys don't they still have to try to get the DP off the table before going back to trial?

Hasn't this already been ruled on?

Ugh. Not just you!! I get so tired of his lawyer acting as though he is some sort of victim and trying to circumvent justice after all the horrendous acts this jerk has committed.:banghead:

 

[Tiger09]

I actually feel sorry for Kirk Nurmi. A little bit. Anyone who has to put up with JA that long has got to have nerves of steel or anxiety meds.

Quoting myself at my silliest, lol. For some reason, I thought I was reading the Martin MacNeill forum. Sorry!

However, on second thought, just change the perp 's gender and you have my feelings regarding JA, too.

Every time they follow this motion, it is shot down.
Just another delay tactic.

IT is not a stall tactic. It is not stalling anything.. It is just a nuisance motion.

Motions still take up the court's time but you are right that they are more of a nuisance than anything else, at this point.
I can not even imagine all the filing in this case, electronic and otherwise.
Time to get this over! I am looking forward to the end of this case for Travis and his family.

I believe we learned earlier in this trial or another high profile one of late that it is something defense is expected to do. It does not delay anything but they normally do this when a trial date is set. Just a procedure they have to follow in the process of defending their client. jmo
