When the men accused of killing Dr. William Petit's family are in court Tuesday, the man whose life has been shattered probably won't be there. William Petit Sr., Dr. Petit's father, said Friday he doubts his son will attend the scheduled arraignments of suspects Joshua Komisarjevsky, 26, and Steven Hayes, 44, at Superior Court in New Haven. The men are accused of beating Dr. Petit with a bat and strangling his wife, Jennifer Hawke-Petit, 48, in their home on July 23 and leaving their daughters, Michaela, 11 and Hayley, 17, to die in a fire set to cover up the crime.

Maryland's highest court on Tuesday will consider a proposed rule calling on judges in foreclosure cases to summon attorneys to court when either their signature or the veracity of their attestation as to the accuracy of a document's contents is in question.

A state appeals court on Tuesday upheld a life sentence for the man who killed 7-year-old Megan Kanka, but in a mixed decision it also ordered a lower court to reopen part of the case and decide whether trial lawyers botched his defense.

PASADENA - The attorney for Michael Frank Goodwin argued in court Tuesday that the man accused of orchestrating the killing of auto racing legend Mickey Thompson and his wife, Trudy, 18 years ago will not receive a fair trial. The Thompsons were gunned down in the driveway of their Bradbury home just after 6 a.m. on March 16, 1988. Goodwin, 60, could face life in prison without parole if convicted of the double murder charge.
