(11:55 a.m. Thursday)
Clinton Calhoun may stand trial again for charges of attempted rape and battery after his new defense attorney announced this morning her intent to file a motion for a new trial.
A jury of his peers found Calhoun, 31, guilty of the charges in January, for which he was scheduled to be sentenced on Feb. 27. However, the case was further postponned after a unexplained two-hour closed door court session between visiting Judge Edward M. Lacy Jr. and the attorneys involved in the case.
During the 9:30 a.m. proceedings, it came to light that Calhoun dismissed his previous defense attorney, Eric Hamilton, and is pursuing a motion for a new trial with attorney Donna Tartar.
