Murray's Medical License on the Line

TMZ is live outside the criminal court building in downtown L.A., where Dr. Conrad Murray is due for a pre-trial hearing in the Michael Jackson manslaughter case -- and some MJ faithfuls are showing up to voice their displeasure for the doc.

On the agenda -- the California Attorney General will ask Judge Michael Pastor to suspend Dr. Murray's medical license pending trial. The A.G. was shut down several months ago when he made a similar request before a different judge.

UPDATE 12:09 PM PT: Dr. Murray has arrived!

UPDATE 11:44 AM PT: There's lottery going on right now to see who gets to sit in during the hearing.

Conrad Murray Supporters Plan Demonstration

Sources close to Murray told a group of his friends, patients and fellow church members -- numbering in the "hundreds" -- will be outside the courthouse at Murray's next court hearing to show solidarity.

We're told the group will rent buses in Houston and Las Vegas -- where Dr. Murray has his medical practices -- and drive them to L.A. for the June 14 court date,today.

We're told the catalyst for the sojourn was that pesky banner that flew over the courthouse at the last court hearing, demanding justice for MJ.
