I think that is the court date. How convenient that he can keep the "evidence" from the defense until right before court. Defense has no time to react, especially if its manufactured evidence...

I thought that the DA was obligated, at this point, to turn over everything he has to the defense. No?

Abrams asked a NC lawyer whether at that hearing on the 15th the defense could present an argument for dismissal, and the lawyer said there is no "adversarial" hearing short of a trial. Surely, there is some provision for making sure a DA is acting in good faith, but I don't know what state officer Nifong answers to, if any.
