Legal alert

In a meeting on January 14th between Judge William H. Yohn and attorneys for both sides in Mumia's federal habeas corpus case, a new schedule for legal briefs from both sides was set. The old schedule re-quired all briefs to be filed by the end of February and projected a March court appearance. The new schedule requires all briefs to be in by April 2, after which Judge Yohn will set a court date.
