The verdict was scheduled for 09:30.  No judge!  Delays, delays, delays.  Finally around noon word that the verdict had been remanded to Thursday 27 September 2007.  Much tension for the Parisiens.  Shortly thereafter, word that it would be at 2 pm!   At 2:30 pm Friday 21 Septmeber court was finally in session.  Justice Fontana read his carefully worded verdict:  Charges dismissed.
