Judge Danya Dayson postponed March 9 a preliminary hearing for a homicide because counsel needed more time to prepare their arguments.
Ashton Briscoe, 23, was arrested on Feb. 10 and charged with first-degree murder while armed for allegedly shooting Kerrice Lewis, who was also 23, on the 800 block of Adrian Street, SE, on Dec. 28, 2017.
The prosecution said that a potential witness was not yet able to watch a video they sought to introduce as evidence. Both the prosecution and defense asked the judge for more time to sort through discovery files in the case.
The hearing has been rescheduled for March 30.
