I updated this thread with the live tweets as they came in. I added an outline at the top of my post to update everyone on the statuses of the recent motions and what to expect moving forward.

Outcome of 1:00pm hearing: Motion to Dismiss Indictment denied. Cameras will remain in the courtroom with more court control. The IGG materials will be reviewed in camera before the court rules on the state's request for a protective order. The outcome of the 9:30am hearing is unclear. (Edit: I initially said that the IGG materials would be reviewed in an in camera hearing. I was mistaken. The court will review the materials outside of the presence of counsel.)

2:20pm PST: The grand jury indictment stands. Judge says that he will enter a written decision, but he can't guarantee that it will be 32 pages like the defense's motion. Court is adjourned. https://twitter.com/newsfromkerri/status/1717652822127518171

2:15pm PST: Logsdon restates initial argument. Judge says that he is constricted by Idaho state law. https://twitter.com/newsfromkerri/status/1717651126278070371 (This means that the motion will be denied.)

2:09pm PST: Judge says that he simply cannot change the law. He says, "You can argue with me about that. I am kind of baiting you with that." Kohberger is alternating between looking at Logsdon and looking ahead. https://twitter.com/newsfromkerri/status/1717649783928811564

2:06pm PST: The defense would prefer a preliminary hearing over a grand jury indictment. Jeff Nye of the prosecution now speaks. Nye argues that the law is clear and the burden of proof was met. https://twitter.com/newsfromkerri/status/1717648920606867478

Nye says, "There is nothing to see here. The Idaho Supreme Court has ruled on this issue." https://twitter.com/BrianEntin/status/1717649010675339560

2:00pm PST: Judge says that this has been argued in the past. Logsdon says that only the Idaho Supreme Court justices are standing in the way of a change in the burden of proof. https://twitter.com/newsfromkerri/status/1717647307938918524

1:55pm PST: Logsdon states that six grand jurors wanted to hear more until they were told that the burden of proof was probable cause. https://twitter.com/aburkhartlaw/status/1717646488850084087 He says that the state didn't present its best case. https://twitter.com/newsfromkerri/status/1717646203616387473 (There are 16 jurors on a grand jury in Idaho. 12 constitutes a quorum.) https://isc.idaho.gov/icr6

Judge says that the grand jurors were instructed on the burden of proof as they have been for 100 years. https://twitter.com/BrianEntin/status/1717646367584383285

1:54pm PST: Logsdon argues that the Idaho Supreme Court can set rules of procedure but cannot set rules limiting substantive rights. https://twitter.com/aburkhartlaw/status/1717645987907551325

1:52pm PST: Logsdon argued that the Idaho Supreme Court passed a rule establishing a probable cause standard, but they have yet to decide whether or not the constitution requires a higher standard. https://twitter.com/aburkhartlaw/status/1717645377548255732

1:49pm PST: Logsdon argues that the secrecy of the grand jury process can create prejudicial issues, and he wonders if the Idaho Supreme Court can change the burden of proof for an indictment. https://twitter.com/newsfromkerri/status/1717644616378487272

1:41pm PST: Jay Logsdon begins oral arguments for the defense. The request to dismiss the indictment has "gone the other way."
