LOS ANGELES (CNS) - Prosecutors and defense attorneys in the public corruption case involving ex-Los Angeles City Councilman Jose Huizar will ask a federal judge today to put off the trial for one year, but the jurist has indicated he wants to start the proceedings earlier.
Citing concerns over issues caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, attorney schedules and voluminous evidentiary materials, lawyers filed a stipulated agreement to set the Huizar trial for May 24, 2022. However, in a status conference conducted via Zoom last month, U.S. District Judge John F. Walter indicated that the proposed date seems unnecessarily far off.
