Special vs Independent: What is the Significance with Plamegate?

Advertisements [?]

What is the difference between "Special" and "Independent" in regards to Fitzgerald and Plamegate.

Will the prosecution's timeline be constrained since Fitz is a Special Prosecutor?

Will he have to "show his cards", (i.e. submit indictments) before/during/after the Grand Jury is disbanded?

Can he request an extention of the Grand Jury's schedule if he need more time to investigate? If so, what is the process to request/grant the extension?

Just curious...
