Mass Source Code Scheduling Conference for Implied Consent and Criminal Matters Set by the First Judicial District Court of Minnesota

On October 21, 2009 an order issued by the Honorable Jerome Abrams was filed by the First Judicial District which sets an agenda for a scheduling conference on November 4, 2009 to discuss factors in the on-going Source Code dispute.  Judge Abrams has been assigned to this matter by Order of the Chief and Judge of the First Judicial District pursuant to minn.stat. §484.69, subd.3.  Minnesota’s First Judicial District is comprised of the following counties:  Carver, Dakota, Goodhue, LeSueur, McLeod, Scott and Sibley.

 

This hearing will address how the First Judicial District Court of Minnesota will proceed in the Source Code Evidentiary Hearings in Implied Consent and Criminal matters.  Key topics in source code evidence such as source code disclosures, timing of disclosures, identifying all experts for the defendant, petitioner and State, and expert opinion disclosures/reports along with additional fact disclosure will be determined.  To read the complete agenda please see the Order Setting Agenda for Hearing dated 10.21.09.

 

This mass Source Code Scheduling Conference will more than likely take an entire day and will consolidate 286 civil cases and 238 criminal cases.  While the idea of doing a ‘mass’ hearing seems logical at first – saving judicial resources, time and expenses – one has to ask – what expense does each individual face?
