A DC Superior Court judge gave a defendant more time to come into compliance with the terms of his probation.
Lamont Deloatch pleaded guilty to carrying a pistol without a license, possession of an unregistered firearm and unlawful possession of ammunition on Aug. 28, 2019.
Judge Gerald Fisher warned the defendant that he could not leave Maryland without permission from his probation officer.
During the Aug. 4 hearing, the prosecution also said Deloatch picked up an unlawful possession of a firearm case in New Jersey.
Deloatch was sentenced to one year, fully suspended, for the carrying charge. He received a 180 day suspended sentence for his other two charges. He was also sentenced to one year of probation, which was later transferred from the District of Columbia to the state of Maryland.
Deloatch’s next hearing is scheduled for Oct. 13.
