Defense withdraws motion to continue for Vincent Ortiz

The gist of the hearing is that Rodney Ortiz will be filing motion to continue because the defense said "they will not be prepared for trial by July 20."

A 995 motion to dismiss charges against Vincent Ortiz will be heard by a Visiting Judge in Courtroom 6 on June 30 and a discovery motion will be heard on July 14. The date for the jury trial remains July 20, for now.

Although the defense withdrew the motion to continue for Vincent Ortiz, they may refile again. "Change of circumstances" was given as a reason to withdrew the motion to continue for Vincent Ortiz. Conflict Counsel's Mr. David Lee subbed in for his colleague Mr. Greg Elvine-Kreis today who is Vincent Ortiz's attorney.

Victim's family from Hoopa was not present in court today but they were in communication with Deputy District Attorney Jackie Pizzo. Mr. Casey Russo from the Public Defender's office represents Rodney Ortiz.

Two family members were there to support Rodney and Vincent Ortiz.

Channel 3 reporter came briefly to court but was not present when case was called.
