Al-Nashiri Motions Hearing: May 28 Session
Down at Guantanamo, pre-trial proceedings will resume this morning in the military commission case of United States v. Al-Nashiri. As always, courtroom discussion will be piped to a closed-circuit viewing facility here at Maryland's Fort Meade, in almost-real-time. (There's a forty-second delay in the audio and video.)
We understand that a Rule 505 session---regarding the handling of classified material during arguments, to the extent necessary---will be held from 9:00 a.m. to roughly 10:00 a.m.
