Source: The Sun, Yuma, Ariz.迷你倉庫Aug. 14--A request by defense attorney representing the 44-year-old Yuma man who allegedly struck another man on the head with a cane earlier this year was granted after he informed the court he would need two weeks to review a possible plea agreement with his client and make a potential counter offer.Attorney Zachary Dumyahn, of the Yuma County Public Defender's Office, who represents Paul John (P.J.) Talarico II, provided a update of the status of the case Tuesday during a brief hearing, saying he has received most of the discovery he had requested in a letter that he had sent to county attorney's office earlier this month, except for a recording with the alleged victim."This item may or not exist," Dumyahn said. "It is documented in the reports as being conducted at YPD several days after the allegations, and it is unclear whether that was in an interview room, formally done or not."Dumyahn also stated that the prosecution has previously indicated that it may extend a plea offer in the case, but he has not received one yet, and was unsure if it still intended to do so.In response, prosecutor Tom Varela, of the Yuma County Attorney's Office, informed the court that he was planning on sending over a written plea agreement, but had no儲存 done so yet.After hearing from both sides, Yuma County Superior Court Judge Maria Elena Cruz, who is presiding over the case, granted the continuance, setting the next court date for 9:30 a.m. Aug. 27.Talarico is charged with one count of aggravated assault and is being held on a $50,000 bond at the Yuma County jail.According to the Yuma Police Department, just before 4 p.m. on March 24, a witness called to report a man bleeding profusely from the head in the area of 6th Street and Orange Avenue. Witnesses told police that another man, later identified as Talarico, had hit the victim with a large stick and then fled into a nearby apartment building.Officers searched the area, found Talarico hiding in one of the apartments and arrested him without incident. He was booked into the Yuma County jail, where he remains in custody.The victim was taken to Yuma Regional Medical Center with injuries that were not life-threatening.Talarico, according to court records, was on probation for three separate misdemeanor in two different cases. Two of the probations were issued out of the Tucson Municipal Court and one from Yuma Municipal Court.Copyright: ___ (c)2013 The Sun (Yuma, Ariz.)
