Caylee/Casey Anthony Case: Baez Motionfest in Court This Morning
Orlando, FL– If yesterday’s antics at the press conference of attorney for the search group Texas Equusearch, Mark Nejame, were a precursor to this mornings motions hearing, it should prove to be a long day.
Exactly what pending motions are slated to be heard as there are several before the court at this time, remains to be seen, however, all have been initiated on behalf of the defense team Jose Baez and Andrea D. Lyon.
It is presumed the court will hear: Motion to delay the economic charges against Casey Anthony, motion response on behalf of TES Founder Tim Miller to be certified as a witness in the criminal case, Motion of 90 pages regarding evidence tested by the FBI (insert yawn). Motion regarding Anthony Lazzaro phone records, motion regarding Dominic Casey records and motion to preclude Leonard Padilla, Tony Padilla, Tracy Mclaughlin and Rob Dick from testifying as prosecution witnesses. Motion for anything I forgot.
Strap in. Ride starts at 9:30AM EST, live feed here:
Mark Nejame, Todd Macaluso, Andrea Lyon Argue TES Motion
First Up-Mark Nejame vs. Andrea Lyon TES motion 10:18 AM
White shoes. Repeat. White shoes in court. Got the petty out of the way, thanks for indulging me.
Mark presents to his Honor, Stan Strickland, the vast problematic issues with a broad request, which could encompass 4000 different individuals.
Andrea Lyon argued this is not a fishing expedition, it is the equivalent of the defense relying on the “Trust Me” argument on behalf of the state. They are not looking to expose people’s personal information. Ms. Lyon went on say the defense is willing to hang out at Mark’s office until they get what they need.
Judge Strickland in recent receipt of the answer, deferring ruling upon review in short order.
Jose Baez Argues Tony Lazzarro phone records
Baez argues Lazzarro was served, and that the motion has been narrowed and only received response yesterday at 4PM.
AttorneyJay, for Tony Lazzarro, argues he was not served either, was notified by a third party as to ammended motion. Jay agrees to requesting the 6 week period of records from AT &T, but is not optimistic he will be able to. Furthermore, the materiality of the defense request post July 15, 2008, has not been shown. All communication had ceased by then.
Judge Strickland grants a portion of the defense request, June 1 through September 2008, within 30 days.
Jose Baez Argues Motion to Preclude Leonard, Tony, Tracy and Rob
Baez calls George Anthony. Casey begins weeping openly. George discusses his interaction with the team.
Linda points out Mr. Padilla puts up $50k bond, so how is it he was unaware that his intention was to find his grandaughter. George is doubletalking that they volunteered to provide security only once she was out. Jim Campbell, was the retired LE officer was staying at the home at the time. Mr. Baez had to be present when any person spoke to Casey or was around her, if he were not, a family member had to be present at all times.
George states he knew nothing about the privacy arrangements they agreed to. Linda pointed out there were several people that could have transported Casey back and forth, and that they requested this service.
Ms. Drane Burdick presented the audio interviews of Leonard, Rob, and Tracy, about 3 hours worth which the Judge will review. She requested an original copy of the signed agreements for all parties.
*Secret*.. What Baez presented as the true and correct copies of the executed agreements by all parties is NOT.. Ms. Burdick is aware of this
Judge Strickland points out that Baez has had well over a year to file a temporary restraining order as Padilla as he has been “breaking that agreement” all over TV under this argument.
Ms. Drane Burdick argued Baez motion is essentially a gag order, and their has been no agency established, they posess the burden to establish privlege in the first place.
Oral agreement was hatched upfront between all parties, and prior to the written agreement. The agreement to provide security was a condition of posting the bond in the first place.
BAM… What I eluded to, Tony Padilla did not SIGN that agreement in the motion. Hello, Florida Bar, please hold…
I am intentionally shortening this segment, The State ate his lunch, and I have no clue why, but ruling deferred.
Motion to Determine a Trial Date Check Fraud
The state argues the check issues are relegated to specific dates and feels although witnesses may overlap, there is not an issue as to hearing testimony in the murder case. Baez is the only attorney on the docket of the case. The victim, Amy Huizenga, is asserting her right as a victim for the matter to be concluded. As an alternative, the State advises they are willing to go the bench trial route, which would allay the concerns altogether.
Ms. Lyon argues it is not their position it should never be tried and it is the states fault for seeking the death penalty in the murder case. Ms. Lyon sugested the state postpone the check fraud charges 60–90 days behind the murder charge.
Judge Strickland is considering this ruling as well

You know, I miss Maura. She hasn’t weighed in lately. I enjoy her no nonsense analysis. Actually, I enjoy everyone’s analysis.
Maura is like a machine in her ability to process & retain details.
ROFLMAO!! You peeps are a HOOT today! GiGi and Clockwatcher — thanks especially! “Till Tappin Todd” OMG! lolololololol
Cindy tells WESH there is no book deal . . .
I say ‘yet’
RE: Kleat’s post (#22): Yes indeedy. The first thing I noticed was the very stratically positioned large men behind KC and in front of the Ants. I don’t understand the reasoning for this though. Wouldn’t Baez want KC to at least make eye contact or show a small acknowledgement toward her very ‘supportive’ parents? KC’s obviously doesn’t want to look in her mother’s direction for even a split second.
I guess George’s baptism didn’t “take.”
michigan fan, Dominic knew the body was there, and he was hoping he didn’t ram that bbq skewer (aka scientific body searching apparatus with the long metal pointy end ) through anything and he hoped that he would not actually see the body. Their job was to set the scene, to PROVE it was not there in the almost exact location in mid-November when it was still too wet to search.
Remember that Tim Miller was looking at a search of the whole area, not just the high points near Suburban Rd where the water may have already receded. It’s a big operation to plan an area search as we’ve seen, organizing the people, decisions on what resources where and how, then setting the date. So the defense will argue that the body could have been found, show a few higher areas in the video, prove it’s non-existence by it’s non-existence in that search (while DC said he knew the body was there, remember but didn’t tell LE, didn’t call 911, so the baby was left for another month).
Point is, no organized search of that particular area. Cindy and George would know what months are the dry months following that unusually wet August, and when to plan their little ‘reveal of NO body scenario on video’ and how to do it– like use a psychic as the source.
Perfect– if they get Casey back home, they deserve what they ask for!!
WSH…. lol, pink, green, blue, yellow and purple, orange BIG Chinese Food Noodles!! No MSG!!!
all you guys crack me up!!!!—hair adornments and woolworths. i was astonished too to see what Lyons had on. what’s up with this high priced famous lawyer. i would be scared if i had a lawyer that came to court like she had slept in her clothes, maybe in the Pontiac–( I go to a lot of dog shows and i always comment to my husband that all the men that are showing dogs have on nice professional suits while most of the women instead of trying to wear something professional–so they too look like they know what they are doing wear any old thing and like with dirty tennis shoes etc.) something that they would groom their dogs in NOT show them. anyway, so i am very sensitive to women making sure they equal how the men look, to me that is just common sense but its obvious that Lyons DOES need a to do list. it’s not like she cant afford it either. she is also a big lady why wear white for God’s sake, i am a plus size and i would Never wear all white, even before Labor Day or whatever that rule is. anyway, i had to give my opinion of that too. thanks, hope everyone has a nice restful weekend after all this circus–bring on the dancing bears!!
George’s testimony– all of our lives were threatened– this was today’s double meaning, ‘our lives were threatened, our safety threatened, not just by protestors, but BY THE KIDNAPPER/Co-conspirators/Casey’s ‘help’ or whatever– ‘they’ that planted the body in their neighbourhood.
hln says
casey dissed her parents going out of the court room ,also they said she could have staged her emotions other than the fact that her lips were quivering there were no real tears. they think that its finaly catching up with her. to the contrary they think that cindy is not realy at peace but seemed to be hiding her fear and posssibly trying to present in control of her emotions. she gave someone the thumbs up who does anyone know???
Ok – if the defense contends that the body was placed at the site while Casey was in jail – which nobody believes for a second – what about the fact that Casey has been in/out of jail? If the defense looks like they’re winning points on this – the state could argue that Casey told someone where the body was and it was moved by Casey or somebody else on Casey’s behalf. I just think this strategy is ridiculous.
I’m not usually the one that speculates on the far-out. Somebody stop me.
I think she does have anomosity between casey and cindy because cindy called 911 and thew her under the boss. she has lots of time to think and knows they have a strong case against her and is facing the death penalty its soaking in!!!
#84 Comment by michigan faN
I agree with you!! casey was not emotional because she was upset about seeing her dad after three months HOGWASH!! she came in quiviering at the lip cindy is trying to paint a picture of a united family no way!!
#83 kleat
lol lol on that one!! I get high blood pressure every time he opens his mouth and starts twitching at the eye and wrinking his lower lip lol!! his body language tells it all. sindy is playing him like a puppet!! I cannot wait for the trial to start and see those two act like ghetto rats!! he is so predictable!! dont you think? casey didnt show any signs that she was happy to see themI seen at the end as casey was talking to the other lawyers! cindy trying to get her attention but didnt suceed. Ther eis so much bad blood between those two women nothing cindy does now will change how casey feels about her mom. I noticed that george is going bald from all the stress. anyone can mouth I love you (HER PARENTS) but those are mere words anyone can say that they love you!! cindys years to late to help her daughter. Casey is sad she probably has been obcessing over her fate !! reality has sat in for her. I didnt see real tears but her body language was a sign of almos t breaking down…
When is this Dog and Pony trial going to start? 12/2011? Baez and the state should make a plea deal. Save the taxpayers of Florida’s millions of dollars. Guilty, Guilty, Guilty!
#72 gigi
omg I fell off my chair laughing at your comments!!! I better borrow a depends from someone stat because you not only made me laugh but you know !!! LMAO STILL ROLLING ON THE FLOOR.
word is over at the ‘TVGuy’ guy’s commentary, that WFTV’s legal analyst, Bill Schaeffer doesn’t think the defense’s position (well, what they WANT us to know via Toddy Mac, past and again today) is going to fly.
So, where is Schaeffer’s interview?? Not yet on the site. Could this whole deal be a roose, to try to gain some ground early? Maybe… then on to Plan A (secret Plan A).
P.S
If this keeps up in here I am going to have to make a rush trip to walmart for depends anyone have suggestions as to which brand is best? I needed a good laugh!! Donating my black shoes, flesh colored panty hose and hot rollers to the lyoness!! Oh yes a good steam iron and a coupon to susies deals !! a store that sells nothing over 5.00 new of course. they come in four sizes !!!small!!! big!!!bigger!! and OMG!!!
I TOTALLY believe that the grounds where Caylee was found were probably wet and inhospitable for a search. This however, is based on my assumptions on what the people involved have stated. The photos released do nothing, unfortunately, to convince me of such and this – without question – is what the defence will ride upon.
I abhor the dishonest representation of facts that I see (my opinion only) coming from the defence but I am truly looking forward to the FACTS! I cannot wait for the real FACTS to come out!
part of it’s up in the wftv vid report, updated now– will look forward to the whole raw interview if they post it
Just watched the slide show (or should I say “sideshow”) of Casey crying in the courtroom today. It seems she no longer thinks her notoriety is really cool & exciting. Remember the footage from her first arraignment, when she was wearing the blue hoody that she bought with money stolen from Amy? Casey could not hide how pleased she was at all the news cameras there, just for her. Fame!
Guess the thrill has kind of worn off, huh Casey? Boo hoo for you.
Excuse me? Did I just hear on JVM Jane weintraub say that it was TL who did the computer searches on chloroform and I quote “that is not fiction, that is fact?
PINK, I bet that should this come to trial, the jury will take a ‘swamp’ trip (vs field trip) with snake sticks in hand, to see those low areas that have ‘black’ areas which were water. And from there, they can see the topography.
Anyone else think that Todd Mac’s end of things today, was more of a red herring?– yes they want the stuff, but they are still fishing and they haven’t found the fish yet, just seen some jumping. Something that Baez said in one of his pre-or not-so-pre ‘ambles’ today talked about how he and his defense aren’t giving up anything about their defense.
Fishing– and they want to sneak a few undersizlings into their creel.
Hey Martha, not sure that Florida has a white pants only before Labor (vs Labour) Day– we might have to be educated on that point! But either way, wrinkle-free white would be good, surely! (but then, her ‘look’ was ‘consistent’ if nothing else!)
i kinda liked her shoes from a distance ,but you guys are making me think of that john waters /katheleen turner movie’ serial mom’.it is before labor day though so it not violate any rules
I’m just so grateful for such a fine woman as Blink to provide this place for all of to come together and share our thoughts, feelings and observations. Every time I read here, I learn something new. I’m always so blown away with the tremendous brain power displayed by not only Blink and her team, but by the poster’s who contribute.
You all are so appreciated, thanks for being here!
We should all take the #5 bus, downtown and meet up at Woolworth’s. Coke Float’s are on me!!
Light blue leather bar stool, lol
B
I truly expected a trillion more comments on the developments today. Everyone must have busy weekend plans!
Now, now, white shoes are perfectly kosher betwixt Memorial Day and Labor Day. Besides, “white shoe law firm” used to refer to a prestigious or high powered firm.
#99 – you beat me to the punch! yep, she was enjoying the therapeutic peak of her meds in court today!
BTW, who’s the big (bald) guy seated to CA’s left in court – a body guard? I once thought I knew, but don’t remember now (my executive level cognitive processing temporary failure!)
speaking of clothing, when the forgery trial occurs, wouldn’t it be great to see KC wear the blue hoody w/the number 8 on it that she bought at Target with the check she stole from Amy? How cool would THAT be? wayy coool.
It seems to me that they are all shopping at the same store?
The whole defense team needs a clothes buyer or shopper…
KC’s clothes don’t fit, now Lyons? I just think it is VERY important to dress appropriately and neatly in court.
Can you all believe what happened in court today?
I thought the state was going to pop in laughter when Baez quoted the motion where it clearly states that LP and crew were not employed by the “firm” hehe I just don’t understand why the Judge is allowing this nonsense but maybe he knows someome will be leaving the case?
Oh Blink it is soooooo hard to not know secrets at times and it must be more so for you…..
Thanks for all that you do…
Oh OH OH I wonder if they didnt answer the motions today as they high tailed it over to the BAR? hehehe
I think the reason that Casey looked so sad today (I can’t believe JVM actually said she felt sorry for her!) was just an act. It was the first time she didn’t have any foundation on or under-eye cream or any eyeliner on her lower lids. And if she really was crying, those tears were for herself — not for her dead daughter. There were no tears when the “remains” were discussed.
I also think she’s had over a year to think about what her mother did. If it wasn’t for Cindy making those 911 calls, Casey would be living the Bella Vita. I really believe that if Cindy had found out that the baby died (accidentally or not), those calls to 911 would never have happened. That lying family would be making up stories left and right. G & C would be saying Caylee’s with the nanny anytime anyone would ask — just continuing enabling their wacko daughter. That’s one sick family. And where the hell is Lee?
Cindy said KC mouthed ‘I love you’ to her dad.
Let us all do a little test…
Mouth ‘i love you’ slowly in the mirror
Now… mouth ‘F** you’ slowly in the mirror
did she realllyyyyy say ‘i love you’? Or was she making herself clear in case he didn’t get the hint when she wiped her right eye??
Hmmm
and as much as Nancy Grace covered Caylee’s case, there are plenty of episodes with Tim Miller interviews and footage of the area that can be retrieved to debunk Baez’s ‘dry’ lie.
I was trying to think what evidence the defense could have in regards to the body being placed at the scene after casey was in jail. The only thing I could come up with is possibly the found some plant that grows only in the fall OR possible one of the items found wasn’t manufactured till Oct ..
they want to go thru 1000′s of searchers and tony’s cell,email,facebook; records after, amy, jesse,ricardo ,if they really knew she was innocent, as silver said this would be under investigation,therefore fishing expedition. (i think casey wants to nosey on tony)(joking)
The Weather Bureau can tell them EXACTLY what the weather was on any day they want to know. They keep detailed records….so that problem is solved.
Personally, I think the defence advised Casey to look less “attractive” and all “made up”. amd to appear very sad and pitiful. More like a mother grieving and innocent of any crime. Lyons (Big Girl) has had years of practice in this sort of thing.
Big Girl probably wears a size 16 shoe, and has to special order them.
concerning post#39 and the signed contract that Tony said was not the document that he signed in BOZO’S OFFICE.even though that is his signature,I think this cover up started back then and BOZO is in on it just as well as the Anthonys. also,I think the judge is bowing down too much to the defense and.HE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED! HE IS NOT BEING FAIR TO THE STATE OF FLORIDA. with all of the attorneys on the scheme team,there is no excuse to allow the defense to get a delay on the fraud trial.they are calling all of the shots and the judge is letting them get away with entirely too much.
Does anybody but me wonder why it is that on these shows like JVM and Nancy Grace,have all of these defense attorneys on them? In other words they are not FAIR AND BALANCED IMO!
#64,THIS GETTING BAPTIZED ON CAYLEE’S BIRTHDAY WAS JUST ANOTHER ANTHONY DOG AND PONY SHOW.THESE PEOPLE ARE PLAYING WITH GOD AND HE IS GOING TO FIND A WAY TO LET THEM KNOW THAT HE IS NOT PLEASED WITH THEM AND ALL OF THEIR LYING AND COVERING UP FOR THE DEATH OF HIS ANGEL BABY CAYLEE. They absolutely make me SICK.
you guys are killing me with the whole Angela fashion No No’s…
did anyone notice Cindy in the beginning te photos posted at WFTV….her BIG snirky smile, please please tell me what on earth does she have to smile about she is a wicked evil looking woman…
I got a lot of research a head of me today I missed all of this….I guess no laundry will get done nor the dusting…
thanks folks for all your post it is going to be an busy day!
maybe the poor clothing choice is a ploy to convince the judge that Angela needs her second job as a professor..hence the requests for a later trial date, her clothes clearly state “hey Judge I dont make enough money as a lawyer I need two incomes, the economy is tough and my hair is a mess, I cant even afford some Loreal to hide these greys”…and Baez needs some hair plugs to hide that unsightly hair line if his lines get any sharper he might cut someone… don’t even get me started on Linda Baden, se looks like a frumpy Tammy Baker maybe she can share some of her makeup with Angela…what a mess…what a total mess I cant even take them serious
can we really even imagine somebody really moving that lil babies body… come on, who truly is going to volunteer for that, that is a ridiculous notion, it is beyond stupid, and if that is Baez’s arguement it will fail and Casey will hang, that is like dropping an egg off a 10 story building and hoping it will bounce…come on Bozo is that all you and your Dream Team can come up with…the birds outside my window could come up with something better than that…
Blink,
re: Tony Lazzoro, It was my understanding Judge Strickland granted phone records through December 18th not Sept. 30th? on http://www.marinadedave.com He has done a few stories/videos regarding the remains stie. He just did one recently and in the video it is apparent that some terrain has been cut down. That was this month. His other video was last month. It definately looked as if someone had cut alot down perhaps to take photos. Dave takes not of that in the video. I’m wondering if that wasn’t the defense in there,seeing it is now August. Maybe the conditions are much dryer this year opposed to last year. “Their new evidence”? just a thought. I have to say it is kinda sad seeing how hard Cindy tries to get contact from Casey, and she so flat out ignores her. I also think Baez purposely got George upset so he would ruin the press conference. Padilla & Crew, I hope you are laughing all the way to the witness stand. There seems to be something really wrong with the DC/JH searh/video attempt in November. The whole thing doesn’t ring right..and then Cindy making it a point to say she had that area looked at in November only after the remains were found. They were busy eating crab puffs as NG would say, when the remains were found? Something is wrong in Denmark. I take it, we will be hearing much more about this?
why in the he!! would someone else dump Caylee “while Casey was in jail” what kind of sense does that make, if someone else did this would’nt they desose of her when Casey as out, he!! if they were smart enough to go into the Anthony’s house and steal all the items she was found with and depose of her close to the A’s house would’nt they be smart enough to despose of Caylee while Casey was out of jail, therefore setting up the appearance that Casey did this to her….what kind of stupid A$$ defense is that?????
and the video of DC in the woods…those video shots were not where Caylee was found, close, but not where she was, maybe he didnt find anything cause the body was still under water a small amount of water in NOV, we are talking about a tiny little skeleton (God rest her soul) not a 300 lb man, it wouldnt take much water to cover her. DC wasnt about to go trucking around in a pond, I didn’t see him with waders on…he was in dockers and a button down not dressed in what I would consider swamp clothes. if she was desposed of later why the scattering of bones, someone sprinkled them around or hid them like
easter eggs? no way would she have been skeletonized in a few weeks the way she was. that is as stupid as the rotting pizza in the trunk story.
this makes me sick to even talk about, but it just make no sense
Baez & team…wake up…we were all born… just not yesterday..that is a seriously sad example of reasonable doubt
i know the defense has to have some kind of theory but how about a theory that makes sense
http://www.wftv.com/video/20494191/index.html
want a good laugh watch this link at the 25 min in and watch the prosecutors (name please if you know) response to Baez saying he has conducted himself in a professional manner…priceless
“Excuse me? Did I just hear on JVM Jane weintraub say that it was TL who did the computer searches on chloroform and I quote “that is not fiction, that is fact?”
#122 boo
I don’t know why she’s going there boo. Remember, in the last document dump, in an email, the Body Farm had already backed off the chloroform issue. The scientist was upset that someone leaked this info prematurely. Dare I say, he might have even been angry. I don’t believe that the state is even going with chloroform as part of their theory.
However, the defense will use it to demonstrate, in part, that the science is unreliable. This is part of why they want all communications.
However, Body Farm science, or not, people have testified to the odor.
But then the defense will argue that that is a subjective measure and not proof; that the smell was from other items rotting.
I wonder, if the car has been sealed all this time, and if it is still as odoriferous, if the state would have a field trip of sorts to allow jurors to smell it. If so, I’m glad I can’t be in that pool!
