I was at call this a.m. in Multnomah County Circuit Court and they called the Golovan case for a status check. Judge Koch asked if there was an attorney present representing Mr. Golovan and no one responded; he also asked if Mr. Golovan was present, and again no one responded.

The judge commented that the court found that Mr. Golovan was not eligible for a court-appointed lawyer. He also commented that the case was still set to be called for trial on May 18, 2007, I believe. Norm Frink from the prosecutor's office said that he would look into the status of the case and report back tomorrow at call regarding where things stood with the case.
