Dr. Schneider's Pretrial Constitutional Motions in Judge's Hands

Dr. Schneider’s Pretrial Constitutional Motions, Including Schneider’s Response to Govt’s Opposition, in Judge’s Hands; Alex DeLuca; War on Doctors/Pain Crisis blog of the Pain Relief Network; 2008-06-25.

Dr. Schneider’s pretrial motions to dismiss on constitutional grounds, and his motions for abstention have been filed, as has the Government’s opposition to those motions, and Dr. Schneider’s response to the Government’s opposition.

As I understand it, now we wait for rulings by the Judge.

The relevant briefs, and the Order releasing Dr. Schneider on bond and setting conditions on that release, are linked to, below. Dr. Schneider’s wife Linda remains in jail as a “flight risk” and is awaiting hearings on her detention and release.

Kick-ass Pretrial Motions:

Defendants’ Memo and Authorities in Support of Motion to Dismiss Indictment as Unconstitutional

Memo of Points and Authorities in Support of Defendants’ Motion for Abstention

Defendants’ Reply to Govt’s Response in Opposition to Defendants’ Motions to Dismiss

Schneider Release Memorandum and Order
