The appellate attorney for convicted killer Michael E. Franklin has asked for permission from the Third District Court of Appeal to exceed the normal 75-page length for opening briefs. To exceed the 75-page limit, an attorney is required to file a motion asking for the court's permission, which is typically granted in most cases. Attorney Robert Bacon wants to submit a 175-page brief, plus 11 pages for the appendices. Bacon's motion was filed Jan. 15, instead of the opening brief, which was due last week.
For more details on this story, please see the Jan. 23, 2002, issue of the Chester Progressive, Indian Valley Record, Feather River Bulletin or the Portola Reporter.
