"Mr. Anthony is still in stable condition and his release, discharge date, has not yet been determined. So there isn't any really new updates right now," Halifax Medical Center's Salina Wang told Eyewitness News on Monday.George could have been released Monday morning, because the 72-hour required stay under Florida's Baker Act had expired. Conway said they are still waiting on doctors to confirm a treatment plan. That may include George being released to a treatment facility closer to his Orange County home.Conway told Eyewitness News on Monday that George is doing better and, in turn, Cindy is doing better knowing that George is expected to be okay.
MESSAGE BOARD: Justice For Caylee
Conway said he'll be visiting George at the hospital on Tuesday.George's daughter, Casey Anthony, remains jailed on first-degree murder charges in the death of her daughter, Caylee.
STATE ISSUES WITNESS LIST, BAEZ FILES MOTIONThe state released an updated version of their witness list Monday afternoon in the case against Casey Anthony (read witness list). The list is several pages long and, on it, are her family, George, Cindy and Lee.
WITNESS LIST: Read State's Updated List
DEFENSE MOTION: Motion To Compel Computer Evidence
Also on the list are Casey's boyfriend, Anthony Lazzaro, former best friend Amy Huizenga, several other friends and members of the Orange County Sheriff's Office.Casey's attorney Jose Baez also filed a motion Monday to obtain documents on former boyfriend Ricardo Morales' MySpace page (read motion). One had a picture with the phrase, "Winning women over with chloroform."
ATTORNEY SAYS IT'S TIME TO BURY CAYLEEThe Anthonys' attorney, Brad Conway, said he thinks George needs more time to heal.Conway appeared on national television Monday morning. He said, in order to heal, the Anthonys lives need to return to normal and that can't begin to happen until the family buries Caylee.Conway said George and Cindy have been criticized for delaying the burial, but the delay is not their choice."They've allowed the state and defense to do what they need to do in preparation for Casey Anthony's trial. That's delayed the burial of their granddaughter. And it's time now that we get on with that," Conway said.Conway would not go into exactly what happened in the motel room where George was found last week, but he did say if police did not find George when they did, he thinks the outcome would have been different.

A judge ruled that she must attend future court hearings in the case against her (read judge's order).On Friday morning, her lawyers will ask the judge to order the owner of the property where Caylee's remains were found to let them in to inspect the area (read defense team's motion).The defense also wants records on whether Texas EquuSearch volunteers searched that same area.
