DC Superior Court Judge John Campbell granted the defense’s request to continue a felony status conference for a domestic violence case.

The defendant is charged with unlawful possession of a firearm with a prior conviction and assault with a dangerous weapon. 

Defense attorney Elliot Queen requested another status date because he is trying to obtain medical records for the defendant that “may or may not affect the case.” 

The prosecution offered a plea deal at a previous date; however, Queen said he cannot explore the plea offer without knowing how his client’s medical condition could affect the case. 

The next hearing is scheduled for March 8.
