Conflicts involving an R. Kelly lawyer arise ahead of his trial
CNN
As R. Kelly shuffles his legal team two months ahead of trial, a federal judge is weighing potential conflicts involving one of his remaining attorney's past interactions with potential witnesses who may be involved in the trial.
Kelly is awaiting US District Judge Ann Donnelly's decision on a request from two of Kelly's long-time Chicago-based attorneys, Steve Greenberg and Michael Leonard, to withdraw from the case. Kelly's remaining attorneys, Thomas Farinella and Nicole Blank Becker, said in court last week that the singer had terminated Greenberg and Leonard. Donnelly in court asked to hear about concerns about alleged conflicts Becker may have before approving Greenberg and Leonard's request to leave the case.More Related News
