U.S. District Judge Reggie B. Walton

Now WHY is this name sticking out in my mind?? Was there some poor judicial decision or perfidy that makes my radar go off at this guy's name??

Anybody recall anything questionable about him? Thanks in advance

Gee, no Democrats are calling for criminal investigations into this leak of Hatfill’s name.

What a shocker.

Hillary?! Wasn’t she “concerned” about the leaks of Valerie Plame’s name to the news media?

A hearing on the question of the two reporters who refused to name names (Toni Locy and James Stewart) will be held on February 19, 2008.

That's according to a the Scheduling Order which was just released.

No trial until December.

The pretrial conference is scheduled for October 10, 2008. That's the time when the actual date for the start of the trial will be set. Of course, anything could happen before then.

I think there's only about 1 chance in 100 that the case will actually go to trial. There's certainly plenty of time for a settlement before then. And the government has plenty of reason for wanting a settlement.

Fortunately, it appears that President Bush is going to “pocket veto” the federal shield law bill. However, it looks like this trial isn’t going to get started until around the end of his Presidency, and who knows what will happen when the new administration takes over.
