During a March 7 hearing, parties discussed motion deadlines.

Dominic Copeland is charged with assault with intent to kill in one case and assault with a dangerous weapon in another. Copeland allegedly shot at a moving car at the intersection of 1st Street and N Street NW, on April 26, 2019.

Earlier that same day, he allegedly stabbed a victim eight times in an apartment building on the 100 block of Q Street, NW. 

DC Superior Court Judge Maribeth Raffinan instructed the defense to submit motions by March 15. The prosecution has until March 29 to respond.

The parties are set to reconvene on April 13 for a motion hearing.

Copeland, 32, is currently being held at the DC Jail without bail.
