Tom Kirkendall of Houston Clearthinkers reminds us here that there will be a hearing today for the NatWest 3. And the predictions are appearing that something may happen today – The Guardian Unlimited titles their piece "Three May Plea Bargain Over Enron Charges." The Houston Chronicle (see here) also calls it a "rearraignment" or as some may say – an opportunity to change one’s plea to guilty.  the charges may be different from the original wire fraud charges, but that remains to be seen – as does whether these three will plead to any charges. The three British bankers were a source of controversy during their extradition to the United States. (see here).

Addendum – As anticipated, there was a plea.  See Houston Chronicle here.
