News and notes

Quick notes:

1. The National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers is having their annual meeting here in Miami Beach. It started tonight and it goes through Saturday. The focus is on cross-examination. Tomorrow, legendary defense lawyer Larry Pozner is lecturing. On Friday, we tap the local talent: Albert Kreiger and Jeff Weiner.

2. The Miami 7 "terror" defendants were in Court today before Judge Lenard for the first time. She set trial for March 2007, with discovery to be exchanged by this fall. She also told the parties not to leak to the press.

3. Magistrate Judge Ted Klein's cases have been reassigned temporarily to Judge Torres. The order can be found here on the court's website. Judge Klein is in all of our thoughts.

At least somebody read my comment on the blog about the Rules of Professional Conduct.

Just wait to see how detailed the government pleadings become.
