In Re People v Cortes-Gonzalez, Jared (Honorable Timothy Kerns)

The petitioner seeks relief from the trial court’s orders of June 5, 2021, and September 29, 2021.

On October 22, 2021, the Supreme Court issued a rule to show cause why the trial court did not err in (1) finding that the defendant had waived attorney-client privilege, and (2) ordering the Public Defender’s Office to comply with a subpoena duces tecum.  The respondents are directed to file a written answer on or before November 19, 2021.  The petitioner has 21 days from receipt of the answer within which to reply.
