We've been thinking through next steps, and our attorney filed a motion for a new trial. There are specific rules and reasons required for requesting a new trial, but we believe we have a strong case to do so: irregularities in the trial, no evidence to support verdict and error in law. We've attached the motion in case anyone want to read it along with the most current case law on theft by deception.
We'll keep you updated as to the results of the motion. State is supposed to respond within 10 days, but they have never been timely. Hoping to have an answer before sentencing date on March 12.
