Nami Check Seizure Trial Echoes Legal Clash
In a high profile embezzlement case, Nami, a San Antonio lawyer and American Legion official, defends against charges by Charles Seelbach involving a $175.60 theft. The defense challenged a $500 check seized by a district attorney investigator as evidence, while Judge McCrory allowed state access to non dealer warrants for non defendant evidence. Testimony traced the $500 Seelbach check deposited January 27, with bank officials detailing the deposit slip handling and a complicating sequence involving the DA’s office. The session was paused to permit grand jury matters and cross examination, ending with procedural disputes over evidence handling and accusations in the jury room.
