Seldom-used law may force Casey Anthony to trial
By Drew Petrimoulx @ July 9, 2009 6:00 AM
A judge has postponed Casey Anthony's capital murder trial until next year. But the prosecution is pushing for a jury to hear her fraud case now - something the defense has argued against.
Orlando attorney Mark NeJame, who once represented George and Cindy Anthony, says the two sides are battling for position.
"The prosecutor is surely going to want to try the easiest case first so they get a conviction on the record," he said. "That way, when they're prosecuting the defendant, they're now prosecuting a convicted felon."
