During a status hearing on Oct. 4, a DC Superior Court judge set a deadline for the prosecution to turn over evidence to the defense.

Robert Edward Green is charged with first-degree murder while armed for his alleged role in the death of 43-year-old Andre Junior on the 1500 block of Park Road, NW on March 15, 2018.

Green’s defense attorney, Mani Golzari, told the judge that since he agreed to a protective order that would prevent him from sharing witness identities with Green, 29, the prosecution should give him un-redacted materials, including police body camera video and grand jury transcripts.

The protective order was signed on Sept. 26, and the prosecution has not turned over the requested materials as of Oct. 4.

DC Superior Court Judge Danya A. Dayson set a deadline on Nov. 8 for the prosecution to give Golzari the evidence.

Green is scheduled for a status hearing on Nov. 8.
