Miller is the Hollywood stuntwoman who came forward just before the recall election last fall to publicly allege that Arnold Schwarznegger groped her, then was labeled a criminal by his campaign spokesman. The incident has turned into a libel suit that goes to court today for arguments over whether Miller's attorneys (among them Glora Allred) will get to depose the governor and his aides. Schwarzenegger's attorney calls Miller's case absurd. The scene-setter is by Greg Krikorian in the L.A. Times.

* Update: Ain't gonna happen. Judge Robert Hess ruled that the governor may be asked written questions but does not have to testify in court.

Also in Arnold Land: Today's The Buzz column in the Sacramento Bee reports on a Shriver who thinks Schwarzenegger kisses presidential butt, and on the pending sale of one house on the old Schwarzenegger estate in Pacific Palisades.
