ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. — Prosecutors in the case against Casey Anthony say that 911 calls made by Casey's mother, Cindy, should be heard during her murder trial.
DOCUMENT: Motion To Hear 911 Call CINDY'S 911 CALLS: Dead Body | Turn In Casey | Caylee Missing
"There's something wrong. I found my daughter's car today and it smells like there's been a dead body in the damn car," Cindy Anthony said in the 911 call (hear it).
Prosecutors filed a motion Wednesday (read it) to include the calls, saying they help show the progression of stories Casey Anthony told to explain the disappearance of her daughter Caylee. But the defense team says the calls should be excluded because they're "testimonial."
Chief Judge Belvin Perry says he will decide on the issue later on in the case.
WHAT'S NEXT IN THE CASE?
The hearing originally scheduled for June 17 has been rescheduled for July 15 at 2:00pm. Also, a status hearing is scheduled for June 21 at 1:30pm. Casey will not be attending the status hearing.
JUDGE DENIES REQUEST TO SEAL CASEY'S VISITORS
Chief Judge Belvin Perry has denied the defense's request to seal the names of Casey Anthony's jail visitors, WFTV learned Tuesday.

Judge Perry has ruled that the list of her visitors at the Orange County jail won't be kept secret. Perry filed his ruling Monday.
The judge also denied two other motions, one to compel forensic discovery and the other to strike state's notice of aggravating circumstances.
WITNESSES DEPOSED IN CASEY ANTHONY CASE
Several witnesses were deposed Friday in the case against Casey Anthony. Casey's attorneys questioned several people under oath, but they wouldn't say why they handpicked those witnesses.
VIDEO REPORT: Witnesses Deposed
Friday's deposition list included a wide range of people. Every one from her mother's co-worker to their next door neighbor, who lent Casey a shovel, to her boyfriend's roommate was on the list.
Casey Anthony's defense team is on a tight schedule to finish up its depositions. Friday's depositions went quickly and they finished ahead of schedule.
Friday's first witness was Cindy Anthony's co-worker, Debbi Bennett, who said Cindy told her Casey's car smelled like "a dead body" the same month the car was found.
The defense also deposed Casey's friend J.P. Chatt, who was at Caylee's second birthday party and owns the condo where Casey hung out with her best friend, Amy Huizenga, and her boyfriend Ricky Morales.
Brian Burner, the Anthonys' next door neighbor who loaned Casey a shovel days after Caylee disappeared, was also questioned. He dodged WFTV's cameras and did not want to answer any questions.
Casey's boyfriend's roommate, Nate Leiniwicz, was also on the list. He told WFTV and CNN's Nancy Grace that Casey never mentioned that Caylee was missing and never acted worried; she cooked for them and partied with them as usual.
Orange County Sheriff's Office Investigator Samara Melich was Friday's last witness. She had investigated a reported sighting of Caylee at Orlando International Airport on July 2, 2008 and found no proof. Investigators say Caylee was murdered two weeks before that.
The defense isn't talking about what they found out Friday.
"As a policy, I don't talk about what we talk about in the depos unless they're filed and we have a reason to make them public. We try to keep them private," Jose Baez said.
CASEY'S FALL COULD LEAD TO CHANGES
The courthouse fall that injured Casey Anthony this week could lead to changes about how inmates are transferred.
WFTV reported on Tuesday when Casey tripped while getting in a courthouse elevator for a hearing. Casey was shackled at the time.
The county jail spokesperson said he'll recommend that court officers hold an inmate's arm or waist chains in the future to prevent similar accidents.
CASEY'S STATEMENT ON COURTHOUSE FALL RELEASED

Surveillance video showed Casey falling face-first, as she walked into an elevator on Tuesday. Investigators said her shackles got caught in the elevator door.
Casey was treated for minor injuries, including a busted lip, chipped tooth and a bruised knee.
In a part of the review of the incident, Casey wrote a statement about what happened: "Both officers helped me up, one calling for medical help, and the other assisting me in stopping the bleeding."

The fall kept Casey from showing up at her hearing on Tuesday. She was almost all the way inside the Orange County courthouse elevator when she got tripped up by her shackles and fell. She landed face first and quickly rolled over.

After checking Casey over, her escorts pulled her legs out of the way and shut the elevator doors. She was taken to Orlando Regional Medical Center with minor injuries and missed her hearing.
The jail is investigating Casey's fall. Officials expect to finish the inquiry in a couple of days.
Casey didn't want to go to court in the first place. During her last hearing, Judge Belvin Perry denied her request to not appear at future hearings.
While in court Tuesday, Perry shot down five of the six motions her defense team argued.
