A DC Superior Court judge denied a defendant’s request to be released April 22 but ordered that he receive medical attention.

Eric Limes pleaded guilty to assault with significant bodily injury on Feb. 10.

Judge Danya Dayson ordered that Limes be seen by the medical unit in DC Jail regarding symptoms he has been experiencing. She required that he see the medical unit within 24 hours. His specific symptoms were not listed.

Limes filed a motion for release on March 30 because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Limes is scheduled to be sentenced on July 8.
