DAlaska: Advantages of Anchorage as Trial Location
Jump to Comments
U. S. District Court Judge John Sedwick has rejected former Rep. Bruce Weyhrauch’s request to transfer the trial location from Anchorage to Juneau, He held that Anchorage is the superior location, at least for this matter, for a number of reasons, including
* better technical support for the Digital Electronic Presentation System;
* better air travel connections for witnesses;
* court’s need to attend to other cases; and
* court personnel’s ability to attend to other cases.
Weyhrauch’s request was made under F.R.Crim.P. 18.
US v. Kott & Weyhrauch, 2007 WL 2220444, No. 3:07-cr-00056 JWS (D.Alaska Aug. 1, 2007)(Docket # 85).
