DC Superior Court Judge Jonathan Pittman continued a Feb. 18 hearing in a domestic violence case, so the defense can have more time to discuss a plea deal.
The defendant is charged with three felonies, including assault with a dangerous weapon, kidnapping, and threat to kidnap or injure a person.
Defense attorney Henry Escoto said he has recently received the plea from the prosecution, and asked for more time to talk about it with his client.
The next hearing is scheduled for March 9. In the meantime, the defendant will remain held at DC Jail.
