A DC Superior Court judge continued a March 29 hearing in a sex abuse case.

The 43-year-old defendant is charged with first-degree sexual abuse while armed for allegedly forcing a woman to perform sexual acts on him at gunpoint in 2006. The defendant was charged last year.

Defense attorney Dana Page mentioned that plea offers have been sent back and forth between parties; however, there has been no consensus and they believe that this case will go to trial.

The case is also currently pending a felony indictment.

Judge Danya Dayson scheduled the next status hearing for July 6.
