Sometimes the system works . . .

So, the client had been in jail for over a year on some ridiculous bond that only Bill Gates could make. It had been specially set in February for a July 13, 2009 trial date. Speedy trial motion filed. (See July 13 rant.)
Anyway, bond hearing to modify bond conditions given that the prosecutor had blown the trial date with a record setting 418 pages of missing discovery. So . . . Judge Schieber very quickly remembered the case and ordered a signature bond with county house arrest.
