Former HP Chair Patricia Dunn To Be Arraigned Wednesday

K.C. Jones writes on InformationWeek:

Former Hewlett-Packard Board Chairwoman Patricia Dunn is scheduled for arraignment Wednesday in Santa Clara County Superior Court on felony charges related to the HP boardroom spy scandal.

California Attorney General Bill Lockyer's office announced the arraignment Tuesday. Dunn's case was originally scheduled for Friday. California prosecutors and the defendants' attorneys still plan to discuss case management and scheduling during an appearance in court Friday, the same day HP's quarterly results are due.

All defendants are also expected to file a waiver of appearance by Friday, Lockyer's spokesperson Tom Dresslar said in a prepared statement. That means the defendants will not have to appear in court until trial, preliminary hearings, or sentencing.
