Lawyers for former New England Patriots star Aaron Hernandez will have until Jan. 8 to submit a proposed gag order after they claimed in a court hearing today that "leaks" in press reports by unnamed sources threaten the right of their client to a fair trial.
Fall River Superior Court Judge E. Susan Garsh also set a Jan. 15 deadline for the prosecution to reply with its recommendations.
The judge said she would write a gag order after reviewing the recommendations of both sides.
The gag order was requested by Hernandez's lawyers during a pretrial hearing in connection with the murder case against him.
