snipped...

If there is a sentencing hearing scheduled, that means the Motion for New Trial is moot? Not sure but I snipped a little of it.

I would think so - since the motions hearing was on 10/20 - but maybe the docket is not updated yet.

I shall move him to 10/27 & bump this thread up for you a couple of days before. Maybe the docket will something more.

And THANKS! for all that info!

9/15/23 Update: Insert Motions hearing on 10/20/23 @ 9am for new trial motion. Verdict was Adjudication Withheld. A "Withhold" is a special sentence in which the judge orders probation but does not formally convict the defendant of a criminal offense.

THOMPSON CHRISTIAN MARTELL

FIRST DEGREE MURDER

It appears they did everything Oct 27th but I looked at this Nov 9th and there were no changes. I wonder if they just hadn't updated the online info.
