Broc’s Puppies case progessing slowly

Former Broc’s Puppies owner Dennis Franks‘ pubic defender is challenging the charges being brought against the defendant.

Franks was in court Thursday regarding the nearly 100 charges he faces stemming from operating the South Lake Tahoe store that sold puppies.

The court gave Franks’ attorney until July 14 to file their paperwork, with the district attorney’s office having until Aug. 14 to respond. They are all scheduled to be back in court Sept. 1.
