The Case Against Casey

ORLANDO --

Lawyers in the Casey Anthony case will question several key members of the Orange County Medical Examiners office including Dr. Jan Garavalia.

Dr. Garavalia ruled Caylee Anthony's death a homicide, but could not determine a cause of death.

During a status hearing Monday, Anthony's lawyers said they will have trouble meeting some of the deadlines set by the judge.

Defense lawyer Jose Baez told Judge Belvin Perry that his team still has a lot of evidence to review, and some depositions to do. More time was granted to wrap up the depositions.

Also Anthony's lawyers were denied a request to send a canvas bag and shorts found with Caylee's remains overseas for DNA testing.

Judge Perry says he'll allow the tests to take place, but wants them done in the United States.

Excerpt:

ORLANDO, Fla. -- Orange County's chief medical examiner, Dr. Jan Garavaglia, will be questioned under oath by Casey Anthony's defense team on Tuesday morning.

Dr. G, as she is known in Orlando and on her nationally-televised show, ruled Caylee Anthony's death a homicide.

Anthony's defense team is questioning Garavaglia's credibility because she never gave an exact cause of death. Garavaglia ruled, through tests and evidence, that Caylee's death was a homicide of "unknown origin."
