Miami City Commissioner Joe Carollo must be crying in his cafecito.
On the heels of losing his last attempt to delay the April 10 federal trial for violating the rights of a couple of Little Havana businessmen — including Bill Fuller, who owns Ball & Chain Bar — a U.S. Southern District judge denied several motions filed by Carollo’s attorneys to. make ridiculous arguments and granted all the motions filed by the plaintiffs.
This is the first bonus of the trial being held in Broward.
Judge Rodney Smith granted motions by Fuller’s attorneys to exclude evidence, testimony or argument that plaintiffs tried to bribe Carollo, or any evidence, testimony or argument that the lawsuit is a fraud on the court, or any evidence or testimony or argument that injuries suffered by the businessmen at Carollo’s hand is the fault of other “intervening causes.”

Even more importantly, the judge denied all six of Carollo’s motions, including attempts to exclude any memorandums, statements or testimony from former City Manager Emilio Gonzalez as well as any emails or other correspondence from former Police Chief Jorge Colina.

You know what they have to say is good if Carollo wanted it excluded.
Carollo also wanted to exclude any evidence of actions taken by the city unless there was a finding that the actions were taken at the his direction. But the judge denied that, too.
Is this really going to happen? Some people, including Ladra, wonder if the trial will be thwarted at the last minute. Las malas lenguas say Fuller and his business partner, Martin Pinilla, are not in the mood to settle. They want their day in court.
We all do.

City taxpayers are forced to pay tax dollars to corrupt disgraced ex-commissioner Marc Sarnoff. Sarnoff is getting tax money to defend the guilty Joe Carollo AND disgraced Sarnoff is taking a pension from taxpayers too. They are all stealing.
Carollo is a crook.
Joe Carollo is a disaster for Miami taxpayers. Joe’s crimes have cost the taxpayers over $10 Million in legal fees and much more in destruction to how Miami looks to residents and to tourists. Imagine Miami with another 1,000 LED billboards. That is due to Crazy Joe and A**hole Alex DLP.

” why is the FBI not getting involved? ”
Lol they wrote off Miami off decades ago and feel it is wasted resources .
Perhaps the FBI see themselves as this little girl playing Whack A Mole and it is simply a lost cause here .

Jokingly this is what some city official here in Doral told me a couple of years ago.
I have no actual idea why the FBI does not get involved but they do seem to neglect this place and they even opened up an office here just for things like this some years back which seems to be vacant .
@Jose, why is the FBI not getting involved? Crazy Joe and the rest of La Cosa Nostra commit felonies in the open and with complete immunity from Rundle. In fact the feds should look at her too.
The beginning here as far as positive change would be a new DA , As Rundle is an enabler .She has always been .
She looks the other way , ignores what she should not be ignored , she is at best negligent in her duties when it comes to the Cosa Nostra Politicos as is that other flunky Vicky .
The Cavalry / FBI is not going to get involved which lots of voters count on so that is just a dream .
The changes have to come , at least start with voting out DA Rundle and City Attorney .
Wonder if Any one have Check BALL & CHAIN SEATING CAPASITY Per State and Per DERM as Per Square Footing ?
We need some recall elections.
Joe Carollo is robbing the City of Miami taxpayers… Carollo should be paying for his lawyers with his money NOT forcing the taxpayers to pay for his crimes.
Mr Carollo may be looking at a HUGE lost in this case. suck it up and take responsibility!
Connect the dots as you have Ladra,
Attorney for Krusty is none other than Marc Sarnoff, who was wanting to get Martin Z elected and lost WHY also connected to the case via the law firm!
Corrupt Loco Joe will lose this case and cost the City more than $5M.
The attorneys repping Joe are like wind-up soldiers on a real battlefield, they are stiff and unconscious by comparison.
Corrupt City Atty Big Vic and Corrupt Hubby Carlos are both going down hard for various past and present real-estate related crimes.
Vic will have to support her family while working as a paralegal for the next ten years.
Maybe Corrupt Rachel Dooley can still be her paralegal assistant?
City Miami and Corrupt Local Joe will also lose the Mad Room Hospitality case within the next few months. This case alone will cost the City more than $30M.
So far The City has spent in excess of $10M alone on attorney fees for Joe.
Most of these remain somehow hidden from Public Records Requests because the Corrupt City Atty Big Vic has them shielded.
City Miami is a cesspool of shit.
Joe, Vic, Noriega, and the Moron Mayor are all circling the drain.
Bye-bye.
