Is it possible for the defense to rest in the middle of the prosecution’s case?

From what I gather O’Mara may move for dismissal, and/or not present a defense case, based on lack of evidence against his client.

I don't think so but the defense can move for a directed verdict of acquittal after the prosecution completes its case.
