    Ga Attorney delays trial for Rose bowl

    As much as I loathe the SEC, this is cute. Savannah attorney requests delay in case so he can attend Rose Bowl. In a three-page order filed Wednesday, Judge Karpf "reluctantly" granted Connell a continuance until later this month. Karpf, who also is a Georgia alumnus, set two conditions: one, that Connell inform the opposing attorney of the continuance; and two, that should the Bulldogs lose, Connell must appear before Karpf on the morning of Jan. 3 "and show cause as to why he should not be held in contempt [of court] for failing to secure a Bulldog victory through his presence in Pasadena." "Counsel's motion is certainly enlightening," Karpf wrote in the order. "[Connell] has made it clear to this court that a victory for the Bulldogs hinges on nothing less than the very attendance of [Connell], himself at the Rose Bowl."

    Judge must have been a fan as well or the lawyer was well-liked by the Judge.
