(Don't forget. They had to ask for a record of the proceeding.)

I was wondering about this. Does it necessarily follow on when the judge changed? Should that have gotten this order renewed by Titus?

My questions are somewhat rhetorical as I know a Michigan lawyer would not know the answer here. This system seriously is as different or the Louisiana system. And NC does not have the historical reasons to be different that LA does.

Okaay. I've had a beer tonight, soooo I'm not following your questions.

Don't you remember in the first setting when the defense attorneys asked for a record to be made? They were asking for a court reporter to transcribe the proceedings. There was some indication that that's not usually done during these administrative hearings.

The defense attorneys are holding the court to its word. And yes, a ruling remains a ruling even after the judge is switched. (All these judges! Once a case is transferred to the circuit court up here, it stays with one judge. And we have a preliminary hearing -- you know, with neat stuff like probable cause. It's so different down there! They haven't even been arraigned yet.)
