From Ellen Brodsky: As summarized by my Attorney Tanner Andrews......
Three things of note happened oday (Jan. 27): Judge Robinson recused herself because she had been on Canvassing Board and at L&A testing last spring. This is not unreasonable; a judge enjoys lots of discretion in this, and even if the parties have no objection a judge may not feel that it is proper to hear the case. We now have Judge Berman instead. The judge was kind enough to give us an emergency hearing on the State's motion for a protective order barring us from taking depos. He ordered that we could take such depos as we wished. We will be coordinating them with the SA's office. I do not expect there to be any public announcement of or from the depositions. Judge Berman also took our plea of not guilty and gave us a court date. That date is subject to change or cancellation once we file and run our 3.190(c)(4) motion. On the whole, then, I am satisfied with our progress in the case. _________________________________________ One has to ask if Ellen can get a fair trial in Broward County, since all the Judges including Judge Berman get recycled to spend time presiding over the Canvassing Board. Yes this is the same Judge Berman that can be seen in the Blackboxvoting.org video Pedro.
