“On Monday, September 15, Garret Graves ignored his legal responsibility to appear for a court ordered deposition. In so doing, Mr. Graves triggered a motion for Contempt of Court.
Ignoring a court order is a serious matter and if Mr. Graves believes that court orders do not apply to him, then he needs to explain his reasoning to the court. He will have his chance this Monday morning at 19th JDC, 9:30 AM, in Judge Timothy Kelley’s courtroom, 10D. Mr. Graves may or may not appear at his own
Contempt of Court hearing, but as an attorney, I would advise my client to show respect rather than contempt for the court, and to show up.”
