LOS ANGELES — U.S. District Judge George King has circled Aug. 2 on his calendar for a trial setting and status conference in the Ira Isaacs case.

Isaacs who owns Stolen Car Films and LA Media, faces multiple obscenity-related counts in connection with movies his company distributed through the mail.

Isaacs was targeted by federal prosecutors over the distribution of “Gang Bang Horse — ‘Pony Sex Game,’” “Mako’s First Time Scat,” “Hollywood Scat Amateurs No. 7” and “BAE 20.”

King has ordered Isaacs and his attorney, Roger Jon Diamond, to appear at the pretrial proceeding in his chambers. According to a story reported on www.xbiz.com a trial in the case could begin in 70 days after the August proceeding, or as early as October.

Isaacs’ obscenity case was put on hold last year after federal Judge Alex Kozinski recused himself after it was revealed that he used a website to distribute sexually explicit photos and videos.

Diamond contends that Isaacs, who is free on bond, shouldn’t be retried because a mistrial was declared without Isaacs’ consent, and that it would amount to double jeopardy, a procedural defense that forbids a defendant from being tried twice for the same crime on the same set of facts.

Diamond said that he is confident that Isaacs would be found not guilty when the case goes to trial again.
