FORT WORTH, TX
John Galligan, the Fort Hood-area civilian attorney for Maj.
/*Nidal Hasan*/, told The Associated Press by phone Monday that the
court must consider his client's mental status because the
allegations against Hasan contradict his lifestyle and military
career.
Hasan is charged with 13 counts of premeditated murder in the
Nov. 5 shooting. Galligan says military law requires that his
client plead not guilty if prosecutors seek the death penalty.
Hasan remains in intensive care at a San Antonio military
hospital, where he was taken after being shot during the attack.
