Delaware pediatrician waives right to jury trial
Recent Cases
A judge, not a jury, will decide the fate of a former Delaware pediatrician charged with sexually assaulting scores of young patients over more than a decade.
At a hearing Monday, a judge granted Earl Bradley's request to waive his right to a jury trial.
The judge also indicated that because selecting a jury untainted by media reports is no longer an issue, Bradley's trial may be moved from Wilmington back to Sussex County, where he is alleged to have committed his crimes.
Also, since defense attorneys do not intend to argue that Bradley is guilty but mentally ill, the judge said a psychiatric evaluation of Bradley that he had previously ordered is no longer necessary.

CHICAGO BUSINESS & CORPORATE LITIGATION LAWYERS
When faced with a legal challenge, your attorneys should help you identify your goals at the beginning of the process. Thereafter, every action that follows must be undertaken with the aim of meeting those goals. Wasted effort equals wasted time and money, that’s something you cannot afford and your attorneys must respect this concept. At Roth Law Group, we counsel our clients to confront their legal challenges aggressively, but with purpose.
As a former Marine Corps Pilot, I learned that you must assess the situation, determine your mission, construct a plan to achieve the mission and execute that plan. As an attorney and small business owner, I apply the same concepts in taking on my client’s legal challenges. And while it is generally preferable to resolve cases early in the process whenever possible, if you have no choice but to fight, you need someone who is willing to aggressively advocate for you. Here at Roth Law Group, we never back down from a challenge and we fight to win. Let our experienced attorneys put you in control of your legal challenges so you can get back to running your business.
