Thanks all,
For working your schedules for the 802. We'll talk in about 7 hours. R, LtCol Jones David M. Jones Military Judge Western Pacific Judicial Circuit Navy-Marine Corps Trial Judiciary From: Puckett Neal <neal@puckettfaraj.com> To: Jones LtCol David M Cc: Gannon Maj Nicholas L; Faraj Haytham <haytham@puckettfaraj.com>; Marshall Maj Meridith L; Sullivan LtCol Sean Sent: Fri Aug 26 20:30:43 2011 Subject: Re: Wuterich Opinion Released The court hasn't heard back from the defense because y'all were chatting way past my bedtime last night. Old people go to bed early. I can tell you that my Oct calendar is full, including two contested members trials. One is an Air Force officer GCM beginning 11 Oct and set for 4 days. That case has already been continued through the Air Force central docketing system. The Air Force will not continue that case again. Mr. Faraj and I are both involved. The other GCM was set by your boss at Quantico for 17-20 Oct, wedging it into an apparently very busy East Coast Navy/Marine Corps docket. I am set to teach 2 hours during an all-day CLE by the National Business Institute in Norfolk, VA on 31 Oct. The flyers are already out with my name and bio in them. I cannot fail to fulfill this formal, written, contractual obligation. Yes, I signed a contract. My November and December calendars are clear. Though we'd request a full week for on-the-ground in CA final prep time before beginning the trial. I will fill in the calendar with Mr. Faraj's commitments and be ready to discuss scheduling for both of us this evening at 2000. V/r, Neal A.

However, I am ordering an 802 conference for 0800 Saturday, 27 August, Okinawa time. Since I am 15 hours ahead of PST and 12 hours ahead of EST, this means the 802 conference would be at 1700 PST and 2000 EST, on Friday, 26 August. If the defense cannot make this time, I need to know immediately and we will postpone the 802 conference exactly 24 hours later. I assume that our conference line number is 760-725-8101, as it has been in the past. Major Gannon, please confirm this. Please have your calendars ready. I am looking at the month of October and will work with all other Court Jurisdictions to assist in clearing your schedules. As the Appellate Court stated, "Put simply, it is time to place this matter before a trial court for a verdict." R, LtCol David M.

Given the defense team's unwillingness to talk dates during the CCA stay, coupled with the governments desire to bring this case to trial, I respectfully request that the Court intervene, and take charge of the scheduling of this case.

With the stay lifted, I am looking to set a trial schedule with all parties as soon as possible. As everyone is aware, we need to block out one month's time very soon as there are so many different schedules we are trying to coordinate. Is this something you can do on your own or do you need my intervention via an 802? R, LtCol David M.
