Rabbit Run: Updyke Now Has Another Lawyer

And this makes four...
The HQ, however, thinks this one will stick...

Glennon Threatt Jr. said he has spoken with Harvey Updyke Jr. by phone and filed a notice of appearance in Lee County ((AL)) Circuit Court.

Circuit Clerk Corinne Hurst says her office has received the faxed notice from Threatt, but it won't be official until received in person, electronically or through mail.

That's how the system works these days, the HQ surmises...

Threatt's office says the notice was sent through first-class mail ((insert postal service joke here)). Threatt, who represented ex-Birmingham Mayor Larry Langford in his court case last year, says he's taken this case pro bono.

Insert Dadeville, Alabama joke here...

Updyke is free on bond on a first-degree criminal mischief charge. Threatt says a preliminary hearing will be held March 2.

Our update from ABC33/40 in Birmingham is hyah...
