Casey and a perry mason moment?
Posted on February 25, 2011 by Andrea

Excerpt:

There was a great deal of activity today in the case against Casey Anthony.

A hearing was held this morning in which two defense motions were discussed and then granted by Judge Perry. One motion deals with payment for videoconferencing services during the trial. This is to accommodate out of state expert witnesses and avoid the cost to the state of their airfare and lodging. The other motion concerns $4500 for a mental health expert to assess Casey Anthony in the event of a penalty phase.

Later in the day, the Orlando Sentinel reported that the Judge will hear the contempt motion against Jose Baez on Wednesday, March 2nd. This is when Baez must present arguments regarding why he should not be held in contempt. On March 2nd, or after, the Judge will rule on the contempt issue. If Baez is going to be held in contempt, a trial date will have to be scheduled. The big question is, if Judge Perry grants the States motion for contempt, will he ensure that the contempt trial happens after the Anthony case concludes? Given Judge Perry’s insistence to move the Anthony case forward and on schedule, perhaps he will delay his ruling. We’ll find out next week!
