ORLANDO, Fla. -- Dozens of people made a mad dash to the Orange County Courthouse on Tuesday morning, hoping to secure one of 50 seats open to the public at the murder trial of Casey Anthony, whose mother is expected to again testify.

People lined up across the street before 5:30 a.m., which is when they are allowed to begin waiting in line at the courthouse. Because there were more than 50 people, the group sprinted in an effort to get a seat.

No one was injured in the rush, which Local 6 photojournalist Mark Lehman likened to the opening of a major Black Friday sale.

The same procedure was in place last week, but there were fewer than 50 people to get in line at 5:30 a.m.
