On the same day as the Ferrer case, this is another case where the family is appealing the plea and did so by them contacting an attorney on their own and that attorney, Allison Jackson is representing them pro-bono. This was also a high profile case and Ms. Jackson did not play it up in the media like Arnie Klein did on the Ferrer case. I covered it as a part of my regular court beat.
This took place in Courtroom 1, with Jason Sheets for the People, Neal Sanders for Elmy Workman and Ms. Jackson for the victim's family.
Both the Court and attorneys only received the amended probation report on April 1. Mr. Sanders requested the continuance so that he could have enough time to review the report with his client. Next court date is April 15 at 3 p.m.
There is background information on this case on this blog.
