Upland businessman Mark Anthony Leggio and three other co-defendants entered not guilty pleas today in San Bernardino Superior Court during an arraignment on charges of alleged illegal campaign contributions in state political races.
Prior to the arraignment, Judge Bryan Foster denied a defense motion to dismiss the charges based on a late filing of an amended indictment by prosecutors. But prosecutors responded that they were simply complying with a deadline set by the court.
Foster responded that no specific date had been given, and that he "would try to be more specific in the future."

A preliminary hearing has been set for several men in connection with a San Bernardino narcotics case where a defense lawyer has alleged his client was held "on ice," without legal cause, while a search warrant was secured.
That hearing -- for defendants Carl Edward Alexander, Toriano Jerome Houston, Maurice Lynell Locket and Frederick Edward Williams -- was scheduled for Dec. 10, during proceedings today in San Bernardino Superior Court.
Judge John Martin granted Alexander's motion to set aside, or essentially withdraw, a guilty plea he made during a plea bargain in July, before the case was marred with allegations of possible civil rights violations against Sgt. Bradley Lawrence.
The allegations were first raised when police Sgt. Mike Desrochers reported that Lawrence illegally detained Alexander and another man during a July 2 traffic stop that preceded a raid at a San Bernardino apartment complex.
