A DC Superior Court judge scheduled a hearing to determine if a homicide case has enough evidence to go to trial.

Darrell Moore is charged with second-degree murder while armed in the death of 37-year-old Julius Hayes on April 3. Moore, 43, allegedly shot Hayes six times on the 300 block of 8th Street, NE.

Judge Stephen Wellner set the preliminary hearing for July 22. In the meantime, Moore will remain held at DC Jail.
