D4vd's Family Fights Grand Jury Summons
12 Feb
Summary
- D4vd's family claims California court order violates due process.
- Texas residents argue they received redacted affidavits.
- An appeals court has set a 10-day deadline for a response.
D4vd's family is actively resisting attempts by prosecutors to compel their testimony before a California grand jury. The singer's mother, father, and brother, all residents of Texas, argue that a court order summoning them to California for grand jury proceedings infringes upon their due process rights.
Their legal challenge stems from receiving redacted versions of affidavits. The family contends this lack of information prevents them from understanding the basis for being deemed material witnesses and denies them the opportunity to contest this designation in court.
This legal standoff is approaching a resolution. An appeals court has issued a strict 10-day deadline for the trial court judge to provide a response, indicating a swift development in the case.
This situation is occurring within the context of a grand jury investigation into the murder of Celeste Rivas, an inquiry that has been active since at least November. Sources suggest D4vd is a likely candidate for charges in connection with Rivas's death.
