Las Vegas a year ago.

Simpson, who flashed a thumbs-up sign as he arrived at the
courthouse Monday.
Simpson and co-defendant Clarence "C.J." Stewart have pleaded
not guilty to 12 charges including kidnapping, armed robbery and
conspiracy.
Simpson's defense claims he was trying to retrieve personal
property.
