Peterson Appeal Brief Released

On November 20, 2008, the Will County Circuit Court dismissed an indictment against Drew Peterson for possession of a firearm with a barrel length of less than 16 inches. The State’s Attorney appealed, and the Abood Law Firm and the law firm of Brodsky and Odeh responded in the attached brief, which the Abood Law Firm filed in the Appellate Court for the Third District yesterday. In the underlying case, the State refused to comply with the Circuit Court’s discovery orders, and our firms fought the State’s conduct. Oral arguments are pending in the Appellate Court, with reply briefs from both parties due in the upcoming months. Check our website regularly for updates.
