Brannon Document Fee: $5300-$5400
Huckleberries Online has confirmed that the price tag Deputy Civil Prosecutor John Cafferty set to produce six pieces of documentation requested by Jim Brannon's attorney totals around $5300 to $5400. Cafferty submitted that number to the courts Thursday afternoon, according to County Clerk Dan English. Judge Benjamin Simpson (pictured in 2006 SR file photo by Jesse Tinsley) will rule if it's a proper one. Originally, attorney Starr Kelso had requested on behalf of Brannon that 48 different kinds of documentation. But Judge Simpson narrowed that list down to six. In a hearing earlier this week, Simpson also ordered that Brannon pay a $40,000 bond within a week in order to continue on to trial in his lawsuit to overturn his 5-vote loss to incumbent Mike Kennedy in the 2009 Coeur d'Alene municipal elections.

Question: Do you think Jim Brannon will post the $40,000 bond and an additional mount to cover the documentation cost by the deadline next week?
