The judge in the Casey Anthony murder case has ordered prosecutors and defense attorneys to provide detailed information about expert witnesses who have not yet provided reports in the case.
That information would include summaries of what they'll be testifying about, Chief Circuit Judge Belvin Perry ruled Friday.
The issue stems from a complaint over lack of details provided by the defense as depositions of its witnesses are set to start. Assistant State Attorney Jeff Ashton filed a motion earlier this month, saying the prosecution was expecting descriptions of the testimony the defense experts are expected to give.
On Friday, Ashton said defense attorney Jose Baez has provided some basic details about the experts, but added, "He's giving us no additional information."
Baez responded by saying, "I quite frankly don't know why we're here." He said he has responded to Ashton's requests and provided additional information.
"We're not here to hide anything," Baez said. "I think this is a huge waste of time."
The issue could have been handled better through a phone call, Baez said. Instead the court motion resulted in an unusual hearing late on a Friday due to the attorneys' busy schedules.
Perry noted that the "trial date is quickly approaching" and ordered both sides to provide expert backgrounds, areas of expertise, topics they'll offer opinions on and summaries of their testimony, but only for those experts who have not already provided reports.
None of the defense team's 13 witnesses has generated a report, but one has filed an affidavit.
