A jury trial was continued April 28 until the summer.

Cornelle Williams and Stephon Harrigan are charged with unlawful possession of a firearm and possession of a large capacity ammunition feeding device.

Williams and Harrigan were scheduled to begin trial on April 28. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the unavailability of jurors the co-defendant trial will now begin on July 14.

Harrigan’s motion for release for COVID-19 was denied on April 14. William’s motion for release because of the coronavirus was filed on April 16 and has not been addressed yet.

Neither defendant has hearing scheduled before the trial.
