BELLEFONTE, Pa. (AP) ? The judge in Jerry Sandusky's child-sex abuse case says he may throw out parts of some defense subpoenas.
Judge John Cleland says he plans to rule quickly on motions by several school districts and government agencies to quash subpoenas served by Sandusky's attorney, Joseph Amendola.
Cleland opened Wednesday's hearing in Bellefonte by noting the "trial is approaching." Amendola has asked for a delay in the former Penn State assistant football coach's June 5 trial, saying he needs more time to prepare.
Cleland says several of the defense subpoenas used an incorrect standard and that he plans to quash only the "unsupportable parts" of the subpoenas.
Meanwhile, Amendola has filed another motion asking that the complete transcripts of the grand jury that investigated Sandusky be released to him immediately.
