In other news, big ups to Ashley Litwin, Lisa Lauck, and Marc Seitles for their appellate win in Uri Ammar's case. It was a speedy trial violation. The awesome Paula McMahon covers it here:
"To this day, Uri absolutely maintains that he is innocent," Ammar's appellate lawyers, Marc Seitles and Ashley Litwin, said Wednesday.
They said they have not yet spoken to Ammar, who is in Coleman federal prison in Central Florida, but Ammar's family was very excited when they heard he had won his appeal.
"They were in tears, they were screaming with joy. We are all very happy with the court's decision," Seitles said.
Seitles said he hopes Senior U.S. District Judge Lawrence King will agree to release Ammar, a U.S. Marine Corps veteran who was a security worker at the casino. The lawyer said he also hopes the judge will not allow prosecutors to seek a new indictment and trial against Ammar.

Is Scalia's mummified carcass on the list?
Summary is decent, but TONS of typos. Needs a good edit job.
If Marc Seitles says his client is innocent, it must be true! haha. I'd place my money on JLK dismissing the indictment without prejudice and the government re-indicting. Marc's assurances notwithstanding, why wouldn't they (judge and prosecution)?
