on Andy Hall's FB page there's an announcement of two interesting developments re; the upcoming trial at Samui:

>>> there will be a 2nd arraignment, April 30, where the defendants will be required to attend, as well as the prosecution and defense teams.

>>> The original judges are being replaced by other judges.

...perhaps this warrants a new thread?

I shouldn't think so. "Apparently routine procedure given annual rotation of judges." Nothing there that lends itself to a discussion by our members.
