CRIME & JUSTICE
In the case against Mayor Sheila Dixon, a judge has ordered prosecutors to hand over two grand jury subpoenas that defense attorneys believe might help their case.
Her attorneys argued that the subpoenas could help their case because they didn't produce any additional evidence against her.
Prosecutors argued that the defense was merely trying to slow the process by requesting additional information.
Dixon faces trial in November on charges including perjury and theft.
Prosecutors say she lied about gifts from her developer boyfriend and stole gift cards meant for needy families.
