ORLANDO, Fla. (WOFL FOX 35) - Attorney Brad Conway, who has been representing Casey Anthony’s parents Cindy and George Anthony, has confirmed he will not longer be their attorney.

Early Monday Conway told FOX 35's Holly Bristow this has nothing to do with the Anthony’s or anything they've done. Instead he said it has everything to do with Casey’s attorney José Baez.

Another one bites the dust......

NOOoooo WAAYY!!!!!!

Could someone explain to me why Conway had to step down? Even if he gets called as a witness by NeJame, does that mean he can't still be the Ant's atty?

BTW, why did he need to look at TES's records?

say it isn't so... no more wheelie boy??

i honestly dont know how this would cause conway to step down.

the defense is mistaken anyways.. conway was given the same access as the defense was granted, to LOOK through the records, not to copy or distribute them in any way.. he just happened to show up and look through them when the defense didnt bother.

i think this is a ruse.. not sure how it is supposed to work though... guess we will just have to wait and see

Conway said that a motion filed by the defense last week made regarding documents on 4,000 Texas Equusearch volunteers, Baez claimed that Conway was given unrestricted access to look at those documents but only if he got the Anthony’s to sign a waiver of conflict of interest.

Conway said that's not the case, the defense never spoke to him before filing the motion and now he could potentially be called as a witness by Texas Equusearch's attorney if the judge holds a hearing on the Texas Equusearch paperwork.

Texas Equusearch is fighting to keep Casey Anthonys' attorneys from getting unrestricted access to their search documents.

So did Conway actually look at the paperwork yet? I'm behind!

If he did look at them, did he see something in them that made him distrust his clients?

OR...did George decide to charge Conway for pushing his chair around?

I am watching In Session, and they keep giving info regarding this during the breaks of the Walker trial.

I still am having a problem understanding why he had to step down as their atty, even if he is going to be called as a witness at the hearing regarding Baez getting access to all the records. However, Conway said he did not have access to all the records.

I don't get it either.

This just gives Conway the excuse he's been looking for to exit this madness...... IMO

George, Cindy Anthony's Attorney Resigns
Sources Say Move Result Of Defense's Recent Filings

UPDATED: 9:10 am EDT August 16, 2010

ORLANDO, Fla. -- An attorney has announced he will be leaving the case against Casey Anthony.

WESH 2 News has learned that the attorney for Caylee's grandparents George and Cindy Anthony, Brad Conway, will no longer be serving as the couple's attorney. He turned in a resignation letter Monday morning.

According to sources, Conway's move comes as a result of a new filing by Anthony's defense in their ongoing dispute with Texas Equusearch.

In that filing, Jose Baez, Casey Anthony's attorney, claims Conway was given unrestricted access to review 4,000 pages of volunteer documents while the defense has not been given the same access.

"The defense motion filed on August 9, 2010 contains allegations that are not in fact true. As an officer of the court I cannot stand idly by knowing allegations involving me have been misstated. I am now a witness to an innacurate legal pleading filed in our court system. As such, I cannot continue in good conscience as a legal representative," Conway's letter said.

Brad Conway Resignation Letter

POSTED: 7:53 am EDT August 16, 2010

With regret I am forced to resign as George and Cindy Anthonys attorney. The defense motion filed on August 9, 2010 contains allegations that are not in fact true. As an officer of the court I cannot stand idly by knowing allegations involving me have been misstated. I am now a witness to an innacurate legal pleading filed in our court system. As such, I cannot continue in good conscience as a legal representative. George and Cindy Anthony have done nothing improper, it is the failure of the defense to verify the facts alleged in their motion that forces my withdrawal. I will continue to support the Anthonys, will continue to attend hearings and the eventual trial and most importantly I will continue to search for the full truth regarding the killing of Caylee Marie Anthony.

Lawyer for Caylee Anthony's Grandparents Quits

The lawyer for slain Florida toddler Caylee Anthony's grandparents has resigned, saying false statements have been made about him in a defense motion.

Brad Conway announced his withdrawal from the case today, saying he can no longer represent Cindy and George Anthony. Their daughter, Casey Anthony, is accused of murdering her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee.

Conway, who's been on the case for 19 months, told several news outlets today he's off the case because of an Aug. 9 defense motion that alleges he got special treatment in reviewing records that detail a search for Caylee in Orlando, Fla.

NBC's "Today" show said the records could answer whether a search team looked in woods near the girl's house and found nothing, only to have the girl's remains be found there four months later. If that's true, Casey Anthony's defense questions how she could have dumped the remains in the woods because she was under constant police surveillance at the time, NBC said.

So...she was under constant police surveillance during the 30/31 days Caylee was missing...NOT...Baez doesn't think before he comments...Does he think we are all stoopid??? Poor Caylee was DUMPED long before Cindy located KC and KC wasn't under surveillance until she was bonded out by Mr. Padilla...Come on...get real..!!!!

Estee, she did have an ankle monitor on during that time she was out on bond, so she was, in effect, under surveillance. Maybe that is what he meant. I don't think he meant the 31 days during which KC never reported Caylee missing.

But that also implies that the State is suggesting that KC dumped Caylee's body in the woods off Surburban during the time she was out on bond. Not so..... I agree with you, Caylee was dumped in June, long before any of us ever heard of the little cherub.

The Anthonys dumped Nejame in favor of Conway???????? Where the heck did that come from? Oh wait... of course, the ever truthful Anthonys themselves, no doubt.

Whether Nejame resigned as the Anthony attorney versus the Anthonys dumped Nejame is a little like..... Oprah declined to have the Anthonys on her show versus the Anthonys decided not to appear on Oprah because of integrity!!!!!

Anyone want to take bets on who is next in line to represent the A's???

I'm betting that Cindy's new BFF, Jim Lichtenstein, will get her an attorney. He appears to be in this mess for the long haul. He must have been promised something really big at the end of it all.

Snaz, who is Jim Lichtenstein?

Unreal..........but somehow not surprising.

How do they pay for their attorney anyhoo?

I'm surprised that Conway quit. I thought he was so far up CA's butt, that he'd never come out. He really seemed to BELIEVE the things he said (about KC).

Maybe the REAL reason is there are no more pictures of Caylee to see....no more video's???? Just a thought.

I really think Conway has been wanting to get out of this family fiasco for a while now. When he was asked about the 911 tapes, he said he felt sure they would be admitted in the trial and CA got upset that he said that. I think he is over Baez and the entire Anthony family's pack of lies. Plus, I think he knows that Baez is going to throw CA & GA under the bus, and they are starting by attacking the Ant's atty.

Jim Lichtenstein is the bald guy who is Cindy's sidekick at every hearing... he's been their "media coach". There HAS to be something in it for him. You could even see him in the background in the web video interview Kerry Sanders just did with the A's at their house.

George and Cindy need to get SEPARATE attorneys this time. It's not a good idea to be represented by the same one.... especially since it appears the defense may be planning to throw George under the bus.

Brad Conway made his announcement on 'Today' for a reason

By Hal Boedeker Sentinel Staff Writer
August 16, 2010

Why would Brad Conway announce this morning on "Today" that he is no longer representing George and Cindy Anthony?

The same reason that Casey Anthony's parents appeared on the NBC show on Friday. The show has worked to gain their trust behind the scenes, and the Anthonys will turn to people they feel comfortable with -- not people who will put them on the defensive.

There are bonuses, too, in talking to "Today." By going there, a guest reaches the biggest audience of the morning programs. The show also flies guests to New York for interviews; Ann Curry questioned Conway in the studio.

What will Brad Conway’s departure mean?

posted by halboedeker on August, 16 2010 12:20 PM

A closed-door meeting in Judge Belvin Perry’s office followed Brad Conway’s announcement that he would no longer represent George and Cindy Anthony, WESH-Ch. 2 reported at noon today.

In New York this morning, Conway announced his decision to leave on NBC’s “Today.” Conway told NBC’s Ann Curry that he was a witness to false pleadings by the defense over Texas EquuSearch records. Conway said he had to withdraw because the defense had misrepresented his role and actions.

Would there be any legal penalties ($$$$$$) to Bozo?

...or physical penalties?

Ju-li, I guess that depends on how Judge Perry takes all this. And I'm guessing he's not going to take it all real well.

IMO, Baez MUST pay the consequences for his actions! He is out of control as much as the A's...

~Snipped from the halboedeker article:

“We still have no idea what happened in that closed-door session,” Kealing said. But Jose Baez, Casey Anthony’s attorney, said he didn’t have time to respond to Conway’s resignation, Kealing reported.

Good! I hope Judge Perry ends up giving him a nice big hefty fine/penalty! Hit him in the wallet, maybe ( ) he'll learn!

Just the mere thought that Judge Perry had a closed door conference certainly is an indication that he is taking things seriously here...Don't you wonder who was present at this conference...Guess we'll find out sooner or later...

As soon as I can find a link to the presser this afternoon, I will post it....

And yet another one bites the dust....
