EquuSearch: Running out of patience before us?

As soon as members of the media showed up at Mark NeJame’s office this past Friday, Casey Anthony’s defense team ran out the door, tails between their legs. They had arrived only minutes earlier to look over records belonging to Texas EquuSearch.

Now, TES officials say they want to try to break the standoff with Casey’s team in court. One source said that, with Chief Judge Belvin Perry now in charge, they want him to decide when enough is enough. They are fed up with playing the waiting game. For more than eight months TES has waged a large legal battle over keeping most of the searchers’ records private.

In August of 2009, Casey’s defense team won the right to pore over records of 32 searchers who looked closest to the location where Caylee’s remains were eventually found. The defense later filed a motion to copy all of the records of roughly 4,000 people who looked for the toddler at all other locations, including south of OIA. Judge Stan Strickland denied that motion.

The defense made claims that at least two of the searchers looked in the very spot where Caylee rested and found nothing. Texas EquuSearch is getting fed up with the defense and is planning on filing legal paperwork to have the new judge order Mason & Co. to review the records and be done with it. Mark NeJame declined to comment.

In one other bit of news, and if my source is correct, Baez will stand behind the shadow of Cheney Mason because Mason has tried a number of cases before Judge Perry. Mason is also known to be a one man band with lots of attorneys he can turn to for assistance. He has surrounded himself with an excellent blend of specialists, all independent and all within the immediate vicinity of his office. In other words, he rents them space.
