An evidentiary hearing is a formal court proceeding where a judge reviews evidence and hears witness testimony to resolve specific factual disputes or determine the admissibility of evidence.

Similar to a "mini-trial," the 2026 evidentiary hearing focuses on particular issues—such as suppressing or concealing evidence, etc... — rather than the entire case.

Jamie Folk reports in this mini solo episode.

The new RIGGEDLabs Podcast episode this week brings new development with expert perspectives from the hosts.

We last left off discussing how a group of defendants from Massachusetts Middlesex County and Suffolk County consolidated their cases and, after years of their attorneys pouring through tens of thousands of pages of discovery, are finally going to get their day in court. The evidentiary hearing date is fast approaching and is expected to take at least two to three weeks in March – next month.

Currently, all of the witnesses have been served and the Court is now deliberating whether or not to allow various witnesses’ motions to quash, so that they would not have to testify. Of note, the director of the lab, Dr. Linda Han, the head of the chemistry department, Julianne Nassif, and the lab’s top supervisor are all now claiming that they have a 5th Amendment right not to testify; meaning they do not want to testify because their answers could—to this day—subject them to criminal prosecution.
