Morgan and Morgan has filed a subpoena to question Casey Anthony in a civil defamation case filed by Zenaida Fernandez-Gonzalez. The firm served Anthony the subpoena at the Orange County Jail on Tuesday night, demanding that she appear at the firm’s Orlando office on July 19 at 10 a.m.
The
defamation case filed by Zenaida Fernandez-Gonzalez stems from Anthony’s accusations that a nanny by the same name kidnapped her daughter, Caylee. When the two-year-old child disappeared in June 2008, Anthony told authorities that her daughter was in the custody of a babysitter by the name of Zenaida Gonzalez, who she referred to as “Zanny the Nanny.” Investigators questioned Gonzalez of Kissimmee, who has denied ever meeting the Anthonys and later filed the defamation suit, but quickly found she had nothing to do with the case. The babysitter who Anthony referred to as Zanny was never found.
In handling the
defamation case against Anthony, Morgan and Morgan seeks to recover compensation for damages suffered by Gonzalez as a result of these false accusations. According to the local Florida woman, she was unable to find work and was ostracized after Anthony claimed that a woman by the same name kidnapped her daughter Caylee.
The Gonzalez v. Anthony defamation suit was put on hold until the conclusion of the criminal trial, which acquitted Anthony of murdering her daughter. The civil suit is expected to go to trial in August. For more information on Morgan and Morgan and their handling of Zenaida
