EAGLE, Colo. - The judge in the Kobe Bryant sexual assault case decided Monday to reconsider whether to allow defense attorneys to ask the alleged victim detailed questions about her sexual past. Bryant's accuser had been scheduled to testify today - her first appearance in court. But that has been postponed until a March 24-25 hearing, state courts spokeswoman Karen Salaz said.

Bryant attorneys had subpoenaed the woman, saying the NBA star has a right to confront his accuser. The move prompted complaints from the prosecution and sexual assault victims' advocates that the defense was trying to embarrass and humiliate her. They argued that her sexual conduct in the days surrounding her encounter with Bryant is irrelevant.

State District Judge Terry Ruckriegle initially ruled Monday that prosecutors were too late in asking him to limit questions defense attorneys could ask the woman. During a later closed-door meeting, he agreed to reconsider at the prosecution's request, Salaz said.

Testifying during the meeting were an Eagle County sheriff's investigator and a former boyfriend of the alleged victim. More discussion was expected today on a defense motion contending that Bryant was illegally questioned by investigators on July 1 at the Vail-area resort where he stayed.

While the real James was in Chicago getting ready to play the Bulls, the limited-edition bobbleheads were stored away before being given to fans attending Wednesday night's game against the Atlanta Hawks.

Like everything else bearing James' likeness, name or jersey number on it, the bobblehead has already caused a stir among collectors eager to get their hands on one of the 7-inch replicas of Cleveland's 6-foot-8 rookie star.

Two days before it's even available, the giveaway bobblehead is already drawing bids of nearly $30 on eBay.
