[Title] => Mga abogado ni Erap hiling i-contempt
[Summary] => Hinamon naman kahapon ng partylist solon na tuluyan nang kasuhan ng kasong contempt ang mga abogado ni Estrada dahil sa umano’y sinasadyang paraan na ibitin ang pagdinig ng kaso ng kanilang kliyente.
Ayon kay Bayan Muna Rep. Crispin Beltran, delaying tactics umano ang ginagawa ng mga defense lawyers na sina Attys. Rene Saguisag, Jose Flaminiano, Cleofe Verzola, Pacifico Agabin, Delia Hermoso at Felix Carao.
Katawa-tawa aniya ang dahilan ng mga abogado ni Estrada na okupado sila sa ibang kaso gayong alam naman nila ang naturang schedule ng kaso noon pa man.

[Title] => Estrada trial to push through Monday
[Summary] => The Sandiganbayan yesterday affirmed the trial of former President Joseph Estrada and his co-accused for the capital charge of plunder will push through on Monday as scheduled.
This developed as Estrada’s lawyers asked the Supreme Court yesterday to defer the trial until the SC rules on the constitutionality of the plunder law.
The appeal to the high tribunal was apparently a last-ditch effort of Estrada’s lawyers to reset the trial from Oct. 1 to an undetermined date in November.
