Casey's Attorneys To Appeal Probation Ruling
Anthony Must Report For Probation Within 11 Days

"I think the appellate court will properly require her to serve one year of probation," Hornsby said.

"Depending on where she is, she could report to another area of Florida," Department of Corrections spokeswoman Gretl Plessinger said.

The Department of Corrections said their officers are working to iron out the details of Anthony's probation, taking into account Perry's concern over threats made against her.

Plessinger said Anthony could apply to serve her probation in another state, but she can't do that right away, and the other state would have to approve the application.
 
Casey book deal in the works?

ORLANDO --

The Los Angeles Examiner is reporting that Casey Anthony has signed a big, six figure deal to write her memoirs.

The paper quotes anonymous sources in saying that she will write the book with the help of a ghost writer.

This info originates from a BLOG called "Examiner.com" in Los Angeles ... not from a reputable newspaper called the "Los Angeles Examiner". So .... consider the "source"....

"From what I've researched, this seems to have come from a tweet by Diane Dimond which she based on a blog post in the pay-for-clicks blog Examiner, which some reporters mistook for the reputable longstanding newspaper The Los Angeles Examiner."

Our take on: Protecting Florida's Children committee

Belated crusaders
Have no fear, Florida legislators are on the case. Troubled by holes in state child protection laws exposed in the recent Casey Anthony trial, lawmakers began tripping over each other with proposals to criminalize the failure to promptly report a missing or dead child.

In 2008, the year Caylee disappeared, 201 Florida kids died at hands of parents or other abusers. Didn't they merit a select committee then?
Those deaths generated far less notoriety. But their lives had no less significance.

George and Cindy Anthony set for ‘Dr. Phil’ season premiere

Dr. Phil McGraw has landed an exclusive interview with George and Cindy Anthony for the Sept. 12 season premiere of “Dr. Phil.”
The show stressed that parents of Casey Anthony “sought no compensation for their interview, asking only that a donation be made to a charitable organization currently being formed to honor their granddaughter.”

New Anthony mystery: How big is Dr. Phil’s contribution?

That left people wondering just how big that donation might be. WESH’s Bob Kealing turned to People magazine writer Steve Helling, who said the couple’s attorney had been seeking a six-figure amount for the interview. (Sources at two network news organizations told me that the Anthonys were seeking the best deal for an interview.) Helling said, “I don’t think it would be under a hundred thousand and I don’t think it will be over a half million.”

Kealing replayed a previous interview with attorney Lippman, who stressed that the couple won’t profit from their new organization, Caylee’s Fund. Kealing noted that George and Cindy Anthony are not listed as officers on the new foundation; they are listed as such on an older nonprofit, the Caylee Marie Anthony Foundation.

George and Cindy Anthony: Drew Kesse blasts ‘Dr. Phil,’ couple
Caylee and Casey Anthony, Dr. Phil, George and Cindy Anthony, WOFL — posted by halboedeker on August, 17 2011 11:00 AM

Many of you were outraged that George and Cindy Anthony will be guests on the season opener of “Dr. Phil.”
One comment, however, stood out: It came from Drew Kesse, the father of missing Jennifer Kesse.

But a search of federal tax records yesterday showed no sign that the fund had filed for tax-exempt status. The organization's Web site, cayleesfund.com, is "under construction," according to a notice.

After Casey Anthony's acquittal, reports that she was looking for a big media payday set off a firestorm of protests -- and pledges from nearly every news organization not to pay.

CBS News claims it never pays for interviews. But it is a different arm of CBS that is paying the Caylee Fund for the Anthonys' interview

Casey Anthony asks appeal court to vacate Judge Perry's probation order
The Florida Bar confirms Jose Baez is the target of an investigation related to Casey Anthony's probation issue.



Also on Wednesday, The Florida Bar told the Orlando Sentinel that defense attorney Jose Baez is the target of an investigation related to the probation issue.

Defense knew Casey Anthony was on probation

During the hearing earlier this month, Perry asked the defense team if they knew Anthony was serving her probation in jail, which was against Strickland's order. Fryer admitted they did.

Perry again took up that issue in his latest order directing Anthony to report to probation, saying that, "the failure to abide by that order and the failure to notify the court of a known scrivener's error in the order may be a violation of an attorney's duty of candor."

"No attorney should conduct himself or herself in a way that impedes an order of the court. ... Our system of justice should never be in the position of rewarding someone who willfully hides the ball."

The Florida Bar told the Sentinel that it has an open probe into Baez — Anthony's lead defense attorney — related to him knowing about Anthony serving her probation, but not alerting the court that the Department of Corrections was not following the judge's order.

A Bar spokeswoman said no other information about the investigation is public.
