By Mike Johnson on 2023-01-10 09:18:00

Tammy Sytch's scheduled pre-trial hearing this week in Florida in the criminal case against her has been pushed back to 2/16.  Her attorney, citing that there were three separate instances of witnesses  that there was witnesses being deposed this month and next, requested to have the hearing pushed back until after those depositions had taken place.  The court agreed and moved her hearing to 9 AM on 2/16.

Sytch, 50, has been charged one count of DUI causing death (DUI Manslaughter, a felony in the third degree), one count of causing death while operating a vehicle with a suspended or revoked driver’s license (a felony in the third degree), four counts of DUI causing injury to a person, and three counts of DUI causing damage to property following the March 2022 death of 75-year old Julian Lasseter during a traffic incident in Ormond Beach, Florida. 

Back in August 2022, Sytch waived her right to a speedy trial "arising out of the criminal episode made the subject of this prosecution; specifically, the right to be tried within 175 days of her being taken into custody as provided by law and Rule 3.191, Florida Rules of Criminal Procedure."  At the time, Sytch was given "criminal indigent status", meaning that since she is without sufficient income to afford a lawyer for defense in her criminal case.
