So the petitioner in this case submitted at the time of the hearing in court submitted new evidence to the court and Discovery to me was different she gave the court color clear pictures and she gave Discovery to me has photocopied big black blobs that were unrecognizable claiming that they were pictures of drug paraphernalia which was a major supporting piece of evidence in her case and I had no objections of the time because I believe that the court would have the same pictures which were unrecognizable when I found out that they had color clear pictures and I would have objected but I'd already allowed the submission to the court so I'm thinking violation of due process violation of discovery I don't know what do you think
