Luigi Mangione is expected in a New York City courtroom on Wednesday morning for a hearing regarding his state murder case. The hearing was originally scheduled for Tuesday but delayed at the last minute due to a mistake by the prosecution.

Mangione faces both federal and state charges for the December 2024 shooting death of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson. He has pleaded not guilty in both cases. According to CBS News, prosecutors admitted they did not serve the order for Mangione to appear in court on Tuesday, leading to the rescheduling.

The reasons for Wednesday's hearing are unknown as Judge Gregory Carro scheduled it earlier in June and closed a June 3 conference to the public and the press at the request of defense lawyers. As reported by UPI, Carro said both sides should be working on a questionnaire for jury selection. Mangione's state trial is set to begin on September 8.

In May, Judge Gregory Carro ruled that a police search of Mangione was 'improper' and 'warrantless,' suppressing the use of some items found in a backpack with the suspect as evidence. However, he allowed a gun and notebook later found in a search of the backpack at a police station to be used, according to CBS News.
