Late on December 2 Inner City Press emailed, then on December 3 faxed and hand-delivered, a letter asking to be heard and for unsealing, here.
After handing in the letter and getting it stamped at 10 am, Inner City Press stayed in and covered Justice Carro's courtroom past 5 pm. Then:
Justice Carro said, "Mr. Lee? Come up to the rail." I did. He said, I've read your letter. I intend tomorrow to decide what part of what is being presented came be made public to the Press. And on December 4 he said it would happened. And some did.
On December 18, both sides rested and Justice Carro said briefs due January 29 and March 5 with his decision due May 18. At the end Karen Friedman Agnifilo complained of misquoting of his mother, but no action was taken.
