Will Feds Swing at Bonds, or Run to Umpires?

Barry Bonds' trainer may be heading to court for a much-publicized appearance this morning, but the only suspense will come from the prosecutors. Since Judge Susan Illston excluded key government evidence of Bonds' steroid use last week, legal observers have been guessing as to whether Assistant U.S. Attorney Matthew Parrella and his team will ask the 9th Circuit to step in, which would push back the perjury trial for months. Jury selection is currently scheduled to begin Monday.
