Visiting Judge Arvid Johnson was in Courtroom 5 today to deal with discovery issues. Deputy District Attorney Jackie Pizzo was present for the People, Public Defender Casey Russo for Rodney Ortiz and Mr. Marek Reavis subbed in for his colleague, Mr. Greg Elvine-Kreis for Vincent Ortiz.
Fire situation locally has delayed some documents being provided to the District Attorney's office. Two envelopes, one from the Mercy medical Center, were provided to Ms. Pizzo to copy and provide to both defense attorneys.
Two writs filed on behalf of Vincent Ortiz denied in August.
The procedural saga continues.

Rodney and Vincent Ortiz homicide jury trial stayed while Rodney Ortiz's attorney files writ appealing 995 ruling
This afternoon at 2 p.m. Visiting Judge Bob McNatt was scheduled to
hear the defense motion to continue for Rodney Ortiz and a trial confirmation hearing is set for both Rodney and Vincent Ortiz. Jury trial was set for July 20. That date has been vacated.
Next court date is disposition and reset hearing on August 13 in Courtroom 2.
The motion to continue for Rodney Ortiz will also be discussed further on that date. Rodney Ortiz's attorney Mr. Casey Russo said they wanted 4 to 6 months for investigation and "further discovery".
Vincent Ortiz refused to waive time for a continuance but the stay is a "defacto waiver", at least until the next court hearing said Visiting Judge McNatt.
The father and son are charged in a Hoopa shooting that resulted in the death of Daniel Colegrove, and attempted murder charges for Francis Colegrove and Roger Surber.
Judge Philip Schafer has not yet ruled on the 995 motion to dismiss certain charges against Vincent Ortiz. A date of 7/14 to hear a motion for discovery seems to be gone from the court system.
