The reassignments will involve the following judges: Judge Doug Smith, Judge Elizabeth Gonzalez, Judge Mark Denton, Judge Allan Earl and Judge Kathleen Delaney. While the actual caseload transfer will occur the weekend of July 25 and 26, 2009, the changes will be in effect starting Monday, July 27, 2009.

Effective Monday, July 27, 2009, the judicial department calendars will reflect the following changes:

Effective July 27, 2009, any pending or future District Court matters, for reassigned cases, will be heard in the department consistent with the information above.

State v. Simpson: Restitution

District Court Judge Jackie Glass ordered all of the defendants in State v. Simpson to pay victim Bruce Fromong restitution in the amount of $3,560 for their participation in the armed robbery and kidnapping in September 2007 at the Palace Station Hotel. In addition, the Joe Montana lithographs removed from the hotel room will be returned to Mr. Fromong.

All of the other property presented as evidence in the case will be turned over in the coming weeks to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Civil Division as part of a turnover order signed by a California Superior Court Judge in October 2007.

Fromong had sought in excess of $100,000 for property loss and expected medical bills related to the 2007 robbery.

State v. Simpson & Stewart: Sentencing

District Court Judge Jackie Glass has sentenced OJ Simpson and Clarence Stewart for their conviction stemming from a September 2007 kidnapping and assault at a Las Vegas hotel. In a morning sentencing hearing for the men, Judge Glass sentenced Mr. Simpson to a term of 9 to 33 years in the Nevada Department of Corrections and Mr. Stewart to a 7 and a half to 27 year prison term.

The Simpson prison term totals as follows:

  • Count 5: 1st Degree Kidnapping with use of a deadly weapon; 5 - 15 years with a consecutive term of 1-6 years for the weapon enhancement.
  • Count 8: Assault with a Deadly Weapon; 1.5 - 6 years, consecutive to Count 5.
  • Count 9: Assault with a Deadly Weapon; 1.5 - 6 years, consecutive to Count 8.

Simpson would have to serve 6 years on Count 5 before he begins serving the minimum terms for Counts 8 and 9. This totals 9 years. Counts 1-4, 6 and 7 to run concurrent.

Mr. Stewart will serve a minimum of 7 and a half years to a maximum of 27 years in the Nevada Department of Corrections. The Stewart prison term totals as follows:

  • Count 5: 1st Degree Kidnapping with use of a deadly weapon; 5 - 15 years with a consecutive term of 1-6 years for the weapon enhancement.
  • Count 9: Assault with a Deadly Weapon; 1.5 - 6 years, consecutive to Count 5.

Stewart would have to serve a minimum of 6 years for Count 5 before he begins serving the minimum term for Count 9, which totals 7 and a half years. Counts 1-4, 6 and 7 to run concurrent.

The maximums for both defendants is calculated by totaling the number of years for the kidnapping and then adding the consecutive terms.
