Re: early release???

put all your effort into that judicial release.....bring 5-10 people if you can and IF the court even sets a hearing...the motion can be denied without a hearing, so make sure letters are attached describing family and friends' need for him to be out....... having a job opportunity is critical...

since i dont know what judge it is, i cant comment on the liklihood of success.....but feel free to call me directly to discuss 216.952.1990 / 216.227.0900
