A DC Superior Court judge continued a Feb. 25 probation show cause hearing for a domestic violence defendant.

In August 2019, the defendant was sentenced to serve nine months plus two years of supervised probation for  assault with significant bodily injury. 

He received several notices of non-compliance and, in May 2020, picked up a new case on charges of first-degree sex abuse and kidnapping.

His probation hearing is now trailing the new case. His next probation show cause hearing is scheduled for April 13, the same day that a preliminary hearing is scheduled for his new case.
