Another Round in Court

A martial arts teacher was convicted in May after being accused of pulling a gun on a group of golfers in 2005, according to latimes.com.

Now, the longtime instructor for the Orange County Sheriff and former reserve deputy, is seeking a new trial.

It is said that a court bailiff talked with jurors during their deliberations about a gun that was a key piece of evidence in the case.

The instructor holds a black belt in taekwondo and was sworn in as a reserve deputy in 2002. Right after the incident, it was reported that his sheriff's credentials were revoked.
