 Superior Court Judge Larry D. Gaddis postponed setting a date for the trial of Michele and Steven Kubby Monday due to a packed court calendar. 
 "Sorry for the hold up, again, folks," Gaddis said as he further postponed the start of a trial that hinges on the strength of Proposition 215. The North Lake Tahoe Taskforce arrested the Olympic Village couple Jan. 19 on suspicion of cultivation of marijuana and cultivation of marijuana with intent to sell. But, the Kubbys have maintained they have a physician's recommendation to use marijuana for medicinal purposes. Steven Kubby was diagnosed with adrenal cancer more than 20 years ago, and Michele Kubby suffers from an irritable bowel. Attorneys for the Kubbys - Dale E. Woods represents Michele Kubby and Joe Farina represents Steven Kubby - requested a continuance July 13 but were denied. At the time, Farina said the timing of the Kubby's trial conflicted with another case, but he made no mention of a conflict Monday. And, both lawyers said the District Attorney's office withheld evidence by not turning over computer disks and hardware in a timely manner. However, Assistant District Attorney Chris Cattran said his office released the disks as soon as they were received from the Sacramento High Crimes Taskforce. Both sides have committed themselves to the case, and will be back in Gaddis' courtroom - Department 3 at the Historic Courthouse on Maple Street - today at 1:30 p.m. to set a date.Pubdate: Mon, 26 Jul 1999Source: Auburn Journal Copyright: 1999 Auburn Journal Contact: ElPatricio aol.comAddress: 1030 High St.,Auburn, CA 95603 Website: http://www.auburnjournal.com/ Author: Jessica R.

Kubby Trial Delayed -- Another Kubby on the Way!
July 27, 1999Auburn, CA. Despite the prosecution's rush to try Steve and Michele Kubby, they just were not ready yesterday.The Kubbys and their attorneys showed up at the courthouse yesterday at 1:30 p.m. as ordered, yet there wasn't a courtroom or judge available to order them to start their trial today.They were instructed to be back at the courthouse today for assignment. At this point, there's no predictions on the exact time table -- we'll keep you posted.On another front, defendent Michele Kubby is with child and a December 24 (Christmas Eve) due date has been established by her doctor. Michele reports, "I am in either my 18th or 19th week. The baby is kicking so hard that Steve said it felt like bolts of electricity going through his arms!I am feeling great.Lots of energy.This is the fun trimester."Michele, who suffered a miscarriage during Steve's Libertarian campaign for governor of California last year, reports that at this point her doctor predicts smooth sailing for this pregnancy. She has also suspended any use of medical canabis as soon as learning she was pregnant, a medicine which her doctor had earlier prescribed for spastic bowel syndrome. The Kubbys, while concerned about the trial they face, are excited about the new addition who will join their 3 year-old daughter Brooke.
