5. Juanita Jean had sent me the link to watch the Tuesday hearing

I got to watch part of the hearing and judge was not happy with with Jones and his current attorney and hinted that another attorney would not be likely to be admitted. Susan Bankston got to watch the entire hearing and she was pleased

On Tuesday, their lawyer appeared before state District Judge Maya Guerra Gamble in Austin to argue that Jones must be sanctioned for violating rules on pretrial discovery, as well as previous court orders, by withholding vital information that was first requested in 2018.

"We still don't have the most basic information about this case," lawyer Mark Bankston told the judge, arguing that Jones has failed to provide a wide range of requested evidence, including video of his on-air discussions about Sandy Hook, relevant transcripts and the content of social media accounts.......

Because the pattern of abuse was so egregious, Bankston argued, the parents should be able to skip next year's trials on whether Jones defamed them and proceed directly to determining how much money they're owed in damages.

Bankston also asked the judge to find Jones in contempt of court for violating previous orders to provide the requested information.
