Earle Tries End-Run, Fails
On December 19th [tag]Ronnie Earle[/tag] got court proceedings placed on hold in [tag]Tom DeLay[/tag]’s trial while Earle appeals the dismissal of the conspiracy charge.
And then he started filing subpoenas in the case.
DeLay gets court to halt, void subpoenas
A Texas appeals court Monday granted Rep. Tom DeLay’s request to stop a prosecutor from filing subpoenas in the former majority leader’s pending money laundering case.
The Third Court of Appeals panel in Austin, Texas, also said that several subpoenas issued by Travis County District Attorney Ronnie Earle are null and void because DeLay’s trial is on hold.
…
“Ronnie Earle was abusing his power and getting subpoenas issued by a court that had no jurisdiction,” said Matt Hennessy, one of DeLay’s Houston lawyers.Hennessy said DeLay asked the court to step in after Earle issued a subpoena for his wife, Christine.
Bryan Case, director of appellate division of the Travis County district attorney’s office, said Earle’s office respects and will abide by the court’s decision.
“We have issued these subpoenas in order to be ready for trial in a timely manner,” Case said.
They issued the subpoenas to be ready for trial in a timely manner. Yeah, right. We believe you.
Earle asked for, and received, a halt in the trial so he could appeal dismissal of a charge, consequently impinging on Tom DeLay’s right to a speedy trial, and then he tried to use the time he was getting to further his “case” against Tom DeLay.
Good on the court to see it for what it was.

Wednesday is Eat An Animal for PETA Day
March 15 (the Ides of March) is [tag]Eat An Animal for PETA Day[/tag]. I am personally making this Eat An Animal for Peta Week…
| Monday | Lamb Chops Vesuvio Pre-heat oven to 350°F Marinade: ½ cup olive oil 2 teaspoons garlic salt 2 tablespoons lemon juice 1 teaspoon oregano mix ingredients well place 4 lambchops in an ovenproof dish (I use a glass 8 x 8 cake pan) cover lambchops with marinade, making sure to coat all sides Place in 350°F oven for about 30 minutes |
| Tuesday | Schweineschnitzel 4 (6-ounce) pork cutlets Salt and freshly ground -pepper to taste Flour for dredging 1 Egg 1 teaspoon Water 1 c Fresh bread crumbs 4 tablespoons Butter or margarine Lemon wedges (for garnish) Pound the cutlets until thin. Sprinkle lightly on both sides with salt and pepper. Dredge them lightly but thoroughly in flour. Beat the egg lightly with the water and dip the floured cutlets in the mixture; coat with crumbs. Using the side of a kitchen knife, press the cutlets lightly so the crumbs will adhere well to the meat. Heat the butter in a large skillet and, when it is hot but not brown or smoking, saute the cutlets in it until they are golden brown on both sides. |
