Todd Schnitt Considers Filing For A Retrial

Todd 'MJ' Schnitt
It was a three-week trial filled with trash talking, a DUI scandal, and a possible setup that included an attorney and a paralegal pleading the Fifth. Could we end up doing it all over again?

Sources tell Tampa's FOX 13 that Todd 'MJ' Schnitt's legal team is gearing up for another dramatic fight in court. They will file a motion soon asking for a whole new trial.

Tampa attorney Anthony Rickman says to expect several reasons to be given for a new trial. For starters, attorney misconduct associated with the allegations of a DUI setup by the Diaco law firm, which represented Bubba 'the Love Sponge' Clem.

"If an attorney did something that detrimentally affected the other party, that committed some sort of violation that affected the jury decision," said Rickman.

Kristy Craig was the jury forewoman in the MJ-Bubba trial. She thinks a do-over is a bad idea.
