It looks like I'm going to be in trial again starting tomorrow. It's been about a month since my last one. This will be number 3 in jury trials if we actually end up in trial. At least I'm getting practice, right?
I've got 2 scheduled for tomorrow--we'll see if they both actually still want a trial when I get there tomorrow. One is a disorderly conduct and an obstructing legal process. We've got a good argument for self-defense on the disorderly conduct, but there's nothing that I can think of for beating the obstruction charge. Dude walked away from the cops when they asked him to stop and then refused to put his hands behind his back. Can't really explain that away...
The other is a disorderly conduct as well. Not sure that one actually fits the statutory definition of a disorderly conduct, but I was gone for his pretrial (out for my grandfather's funeral) and so the attorney covering for me said we had no pretrial issues and we got set on for the jury trial. I'm planning on making a motion for judgment of acquittal after the state presents their no evidence and hopefully that works.
And...yeah...that's tomorrow for me! Yay!
