Citing holidays and outstanding discovery, jury trial for Joe Olivio Jr. and Mario Nunez continued to next year

(Olivio Jr)

(Nunez)

Two suspects in the Jesus Garcia homicide, Joe Olivio Jr, Joe and  Mario Nunez had a hearing scheduled in Courtroom 2 this morning.

Criminal proceedings have been suspended for Joe Olivio III in the Jesus Garcia case.

Jury trial scheduled for October 23 was vacated. People did not object to the defense motion by Nunez's attorney Mr. David Celli for a continuance. Joe Judge, attorney for Olivio, Jr. said he "joins in that request."

Future dates are pre trial on January 9, trial confirmation on January 30 and jury trial on February 13. A "conservative" estimate is six weeks for an all day trial.

The jury trial date could be delayed. Defense requested dates after the first of the year. Deputy District Attorney Luke Bernthal is scheduled to be in trial for the Jon Goldberg case, which had already been scheduled to start February 2.

Body attachment for Carolyn Snow,a key witness will be reissued.

Joe Olivio Jr. was in a red jumpsuit, which means administrative segregation. He has gained a lot of weight since he has been in custody.

No other media in court. TS' Sam Armanino showed up as this had wrapped and dates were being set. There is a gag order on the case.

Trial confirmation had been scheduled for September 19; it was continued to September 25;  continued to October 3 and  continued again until today.
