Lawyer Requests Continuance So He Won’t Be ‘Killed By Wife,’ Miss Child’s Birth
Late last week, a Pennsylvania lawyer filed the mother of all continuance requests. Marc Daffner, who practices out of Pittsburgh, requested that one of his client’s preliminary hearings be postponed so that he’d be able to avoid his own imminent death.
Daffner’s wife, Randi, had just gone into labor, and he knew that she’d murder him if he was in court instead of by her side. Here’s the motion that Daffner submitted to the court:
According to the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, Daffner’s motion for a continuance was granted because it was a “significant emergency.” Here’s more from the Trib:
“They say you need to be truthful to the court. I didn’t have a legal reason for the continuance, but that was the truth,” Daffner said as he drove from the hospital in Oakland to his Green Tree home to pick up clothing for his wife. “I got a new date, and the DA signed off on it.”This story has a very happy ending. Not only is Marc Daffner still alive, but he and his wife are the proud new parents of their 7-pound 9-ounce daughter, Brynn Daffner, who was born at 12:57 a.m. on Friday, August 21. Congratulations to the Daffner family!
