ORLANDO, Fla. -- A court hearing pertaining to the depositions of George and Cindy Anthony in connection with a deposition lawsuit filed against their daughter has been canceled.
The Anthonys' daughter, Casey Anthony, 22, remains jailed on first-degree murder charges in the death of her daughter, Caylee, whose remains were discovered in December. Casey Anthony said she left Caylee with a baby sitter named Zenaida Gonzalez in mid-June, but the two were gone when she returned to pick up her daughter.
A woman named Zenaida Gonzalez filed a civil lawsuit against Casey Anthony, saying she lost her job and her reputation was damaged because she was linked to the case. She's seeking $15,000 for pain and suffering.
Gonzalez's attorney, John Morgan, said he and Brad Conway, the attorney representing George and Cindy Anthony, worked out a deal for Casey Anthony's parents to be deposed April 9 -- without the media present.
Lee Anthony, Casey Anthony's brother, was recently deposed in the case and refused to answer two questions which sought Lee Anthony's opinion on whether he thought his sister had anything to do with Caylee's disappearance and who the father of Caylee is.
A judge is being asked to rule on whether Lee Anthony must answer the questions.
