Several motions in the first-degree murder case against Casey Anthony will be addressed at a hearing next Friday.

One of the topics to be discussed is a defense motion to dismiss. Casey Anthony's defense claims they and their experts were prevented from properly inspecting the crime scene where her daughter's remains were found in December.

Orange Circuit Judge Stan Strickland will hear the arguments for the motions at 9:30 a.m. on Oct. 16. Strickland will also preside over a status hearing in the check fraud case against Casey Anthony on the same day.

Casey Anthony is charged with first-degree murder in the death of her 2-year-old daughter who went missing last summer. Casey Anthony waited 31 days to report her daughter missing and blamed her disappearance on a nanny, who investigators don't believe exists.

Caylee Anthony's remains were found in December, five months after she was reported missing, in a wooded lot just blocks from the Anthony family home.

In other developments today, Casey Anthony's defense team will receive more investigative reports from prosecutors, a notice filed by the State Attorney's Office said.

About 40 pages will be released to the defense. Most of those will be forensic entomology investigative reports, the state's court filing said.

The documents are being released to the defense as part of the discovery process. The items will later be released to the public.

New Hearing Scheduled In Anthony Case
Judge To Hear Several Motions In Murder Case

POSTED: Wednesday, October 7, 2009
UPDATED: 7:30 pm EDT October 7, 2009

ORLANDO, Fla. -- The murder case against Casey Anthony is heading back to a courtroom to try to resolve several motions filed by both sides.

VIDEO: Hearing Set

* Motion To Dismiss Due To Spoilation Of Evidence

* State's Response To Motion To Dismiss

* State's Motion To Compel Reciprocal Discovery

* Defense's Response To State's Motion To Compel Reciprocal Discovery

* State's Motion To Strike Defense's Legally Flawed Motion

Local 6 investigative reporter Tony Pipitone said this will be the 19th court hearing held in the case against Anthony, dating back to her first court appearance on July 18, 2008.

The next hearing is scheduled for Friday, Oct. 16. Judge Stan Strickland wants to put lawyers from Anthony's defense and the state attorney's office in the same room in an attempt to resolve several issues and get the case moving.

Anthony is charged with first-degree murder in the death of her daughter, Caylee Anthony. Caylee was reported missing in July 2008 after being missing for a month. She was 2 years old.

Caylee's remains were discovered in a wooded area near Anthony's parents' home in east Orange County.

Anthony's defense has repeatedly claimed the case against its client is weak and should be dismissed. The defense said evidence in the woods where Caylee's body was found was spoiled by authorities before defense experts could examine it.

The defense has also claimed that the failure to discover Caylee's body in the months before it was found, despite searches near the area, is also evidence of Anthony's innocence.

The prosecution said the defense has yet to substantiate its claims of innocence and the state is demanding a list of witnesses the defense plans to call to support their claims.

Earlier this week, the prosecution ridiculed the defense's motions to dismiss, saying they were legally flawed and should not even be called for a hearing.

Strickland did not call the motion to dismiss to be heard at next week's hearing, but did set for hearing the state's move to have that motion to dismiss cleared from the record because it is flawed.

In an attempt to correct itself, the defense recently added a sworn statement from Anthony, which said she did not report Caylee missing until July 15, 2008, one month after the toddler was last seen alive. Anthony claimed she left Caylee with a baby sitter named Zenaida Gonzalez.

It is unclear how those facts, which are not new, will prove Anthony's innocence in her daughter's death.

Strickland also set a status hearing in the check fraud case against Anthony for the same day as the hearing in the murder trial.

Pipitone said it looks like Strickland is trying to clear the clutter over the defense's claims that she case should be dismissed. Strickland also did not call the defense's motion to bar the state from seeking the death penalty to be heard next week.

Snaz, I totally agree that this should be good. I think some of the state's strongest evidence will be in the forensic entomology investigative reports.
Remember we have the paper towels.

And the presence of "coffin flies" Not blow flies. Which shows Caylee was very possibly, IMO, put into that trunk either alive or before any decomposition had occurred. She then attempted to clean it up with the paper towels. Unless of course, there was a decomposing pig in her car, as those are the only two things consistent with the compounds found on those paper towels, if I read that correctly.

So, I am not worried in the least about the duct tape, at his point. Whether or not a jury wants to believe the tape is a match or not, had a heart sticker on it or not, will Baez, Lyons or Baden, please explain WHY in the world KC had paper towels with human or pig fat breakdown on them in HER trunk? So, let's see if Conway, Baez, Baden, Macaluso or Lyons goes on television to try and explain THAT away!

Sorry this is so graphic, there's no other way to describe it . Believe me I tried to find a way. This murder is just graphic and no way around it.

Snaz, you are doing a great job keeping everything up to date on this case, and I truly believe you have a possible assistant in Tracey. I am learning more and more about this case that I didn't know before, just by reading yours and Tracey's posts. Keep up the good work girls, you are FABULOUS. (sorry J4a, just had to use caps to get my point across.)

Thank you very much, c4...... and as the time gets closer and I get the link(s) to the live hearing, I will post that as well.

I love the "Click Orlando" site. It is remarkable to be able to sit here in my home and see the court proceedings "live", any one who hasn't tried it will be pleased with it.

I think the defense is grasping at straws. Pathetic.

Apparently there are two separate hearings tomorrow in two separate court rooms.

The first is for the fraud case at 9:00 a.m.

The second is the murder case at 9:30 a.m.

When we get live stream links, we will post them here. I think at least the 9:30 hearing may be on truTV, as earlier today, Beth Karas with InSession was on her way to Orlando for the hearing tomorrow.

Thank you so much Snaz. I said it before but I'll say it again...You are Da Bomb!

Also heard that HLN is covering the trial.....

I'm sorry but every single time KC looks up, chuckles or any movement at all, I just want to smack her face. She really & truly makes my stomach turn! I'd like to grab a roll of duct tape and show her a thing or two. I can actually feel my blood pressure raise.

Bozo's arguement about the pictures. "Well, my client is the next of kin." ARE YOU KIDDING ME??

And another hearing bites the dust........... that was faster than I thought it would be.....

Ok, I missed the entire thing. What the hail happened? LOL! And someone please tell me WHY KC and Baez were cracking up laughing? What was sooo freaking funny? It's in the WFTV pics of the hearing.

Tracey, you didn't miss much... it was a wham, bam, thank you ma'am kind of hearing..... Judge S did grant defense's motion to copy photos to disc and send them to their experts out of state. I know most people don't agree with that, but I think the Judge is doing everything he can to make sure there are no grounds for appeal later......

As far as them all laughing, the Judge said something that was apparently funny to the whole courtroom because everyone seemed to laugh.... but I couldn't hear what he said.....
