Vanessa Kachadurian- Should attorney recuse himself from the Doctor of Michael Jackson's murder case?
Dr. Conrad Murray, former physician of Michael Jackson
Many people I have spoken with believe that Nareg should step down from this case. It is unethical when an attorney has crossed the line and become personally involved in a case and no longer can make sound judgment. Mark Geragos is correct and it is unprofessional as Nareg would be privilaged to certain information about Michael Jackson. These Attorneys will be on either side of the fence depending on who is paying them. Especially in these economic times, any case even if it is flimsy is good so long as there is a wealthy client willing to fork out $450.00+ an hour.
CBS/AP) LOS ANGELES -The judge overseeing the case of Dr. Conrad Murray, who is charged in Michael Jackson's death, will hear arguments today on whether a new attorney who had ties to the singer should be allowed to join the defense team.
Nareg Gourjian is a former associate of celebrity attorney Mark Geragos.
Geragos represented Jackson from 2003 until 2005 but left the singer's case before he was acquitted of child molestation charges. Geragos is also expected to speak Thursday about whether he thinks Gourjian should be allowed to defend Murray, who is charged with involuntary manslaughter.
Gourjian has said he did very little work on Jackson's case.
An attorney for Jackson's estate is also among those expected to weigh in on the matter.
Murray is not expected to attend the hearing.
