Attorneys for former WWE star Ted DiBiase Jr. filed the following motion late yesterday before The U.S. District Court, Southern District of Mississippi:
"Defendant, Theodore DiBiase, Jr. (“Defendant”), through undersigned counsel, respectfully moves for a mistrial for the reasons set forth in the Confidential Memorandum of Authorities that is being contemporaneously provided to the Court for in camera and which Defendant incorporates and fully relies on. Continuation of the trial under these circumstances would violate Defendant’s Sixth Amendment right to counsel of his choice, the effective assistance of counsel, undermine the fairness of the proceedings, and result in manifest necessity warranting a mistrial."
The court has not ruled on the motion.
DiBiase's trial resumes tomorrow in Biloxi, MS.
