The litigation director for TDS said today that he did not consider calling a Court of Criminal Appeals judge to request acceptance of a filing on behalf of Michael Richard on Sept. 25, 2007. Testifying on the second day of CCA Presiding Judge Sharon Keller’s hearing on ethics charges, University of Houston Law Center professor David Dow said he did not know or was not aware he could use Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.2 to call a judge on the criminal appeals court “when we’re told the court was closed.” Under questioning by Mike McKetta, Dow also said he didn’t consider calling then CCA general counsel Ed Marty because he assumed it would not do any good.
