We had our pre-trial conference today. The judge was ready to hear our arguments for our motions in limine. Of course we had to tell him that we were precluded from arguing our motion because the Whiners went to the prof. The judge asked them if they were prepared to argue against it. Of course they weren't. He was disappointed, because he liked our "creative lawyering" and he seemed a little miffed that the other side went around him and directly to the prof. Yea for us. He also sided with us on all our other arguments--probably more out of fairness than anything. He admitted that this case was weighted toward the defense and that we were wise to try to fight in pre-trial.
We were also informed that the Prof will be sitting in on our trial. There are 16 trial going at the same time--so I don't know if all of this has anything to do with us being selected.
