...If the change-of-venue approval stands, the state's Administrative Office of the Courts will suggest three alternative venues. The judge and attorneys then work together to select one of these.

Peterson's lawyer, Mark Geragos, has said he wants the trial moved to Los Angeles County, where his practice is based.

Of course he wants the trial moved to him hometown...I, personally would like to see it moved to Alameda. Logistically it would be muche better for the Prosecution, Laci's family and friends who will be wanting to be in the courtromm EVERY DAY.

I always KNEW Geragos would shoot for LA. However, he cannot DICTATE where it will be held. Other factors must be factored in, mainly cost and practicality. I still think that busing in Jurors from another County would have been the best thing to do. Geragos wants a Jury from DOWNTOWN LA. I'm sorry but that would be the same type of Jury that Simpson had and that's his plan. Basically, poor and undeducated and anti-law enforcement.
