As talk of helmet-wielding Aqib Talib getting into yet another confrontation swirls (Joe will bring you that later), Joe thought it might be a good time offer the latest on Talib’s legal troubles.

In the case of the State vs. Talib, who allegedly clocked a cab driver in the back of the head while the cabbie sped along I-275 and Talib was intoxicated in the back seat, the court system is moving things along.

Talib’s arraignment on his midemeanor battery charge is on Nov. 9.

Talib has signed a waiver so he doesn’t have to appear in court for that, and he’s waived his right to a speedy trial. Mr. Talib also has filed his written plea of “not guilty.”
