By Monday afternoon, Anthony's attorneys must provide to the judge in her murder case a detailed schedule on when they will depose the prosecution's witnesses.

Anthony's defense team is expected to question more than 50 people under oath, in addition to the 36 people that have already been deposed.

Chief Judge Belvin Perry set the deadline in an attempt to speed up the case. Perry said previously that he would not hesitate to find witnesses in contempt of court if they do not cooperate.

Judge In Casey Case Wants Deposition Schedule
Monday, May 17, 2010 3:42:06 PM

"Prosecutors say they&#8217;re having difficulties because the defense hasn't provided a list, defense attorneys will not cooperate or they're still working on the case and can't be questioned."

CFNews13 also has a Court Order filed today regarding the pending DP motions. Nice to see the NOON deadlines. :)

Transcript costs for defense will add up, WESH reports;
defense deposition list has 40 witnesses, WFTV says;

”Usually a judge will pay one or two, but you start getting to 10, 20, the judge is going to ask a lot of questions,” Orlando attorney Richard Hornsby said.

Hornsby estimated that a 90-page transcript could cost $500 to produce. “These are definitely big-ticket items in any criminal case,” Hornsby said.

Chief Judge Belvin Perry required both the defense and prosecution to turn in a detailed list of their remaining interviews to the court by Monday. The defense list has more than 40 witnesses, including FBI agents, Casey's friends and family members and members of the Orange County Sheriff's Office.

Also, the prosecution filed a motion Monday to say they could not meet the deadline, because the defense had not given them the list in time. They are requesting a 10-day extension.

Judge Perry also filed an order Monday regarding 10 pending death penalty motions. He is requiring the state to file a written response to those motions by June 16 and the defense must submit their replies by June 28.

Baez has asked Perry to order the state's Justice Administrative Commission to produce and pay for eight witness transcripts from recent depositions.

"Usually the judge will OK one or two, but once you start getting into the 10s or 20s, the judge is going to ask a lot of questions," defense attorney Richard Hornsby said. Hornsby has gone through the same process with the JAC. He said a 90-page transcript can cost around $500 to produce. "These are definitely big-ticket items in any criminal case, and in this one, with the amount of witnesses, the costs could become astronomical," Hornsby said.

Also on Monday, Perry ordered both sides to file written arguments on seven of 10 pending death penalty challenges filed by Anthony's defense.

Hornsby said Perry wants both sides to state their positions in writing if this critical part of the case is ever considered by the high courts on appeal. "I think it's important that both sides are able to give their accounts, so that there can be no issue on appeal about whether or not this was waived or this wasn't waived," Hornsby said.
