Judicial Ruling:  Correct Spelling of Conner

 

Guilt Phase

July 7, 2004

 

JUDGE: All right. I've been advised there's an issue with the spelling of Conner. I understand it's spelled C-O-N-N-E-R, not O-R. That's what I've been told.

D. HARRIS: The information that we have on the chart up there, that is the information that was provided by the Contra Costa Coroner's office.

JUDGE: Okay.

D. HARRIS: That's the official spelling that they have.

JUDGE:That's okay for the charts, but I'm talking about the transcript. Mr. Geragos, is the correct spelling E-R?

Scott Peterson: The correct spelling is E-R, your Honor.

JUDGE: So it's C-O-N-N-E-R. On the diagrams it's O-R. That's okay, but in the transcript it should be E-R.
