Jacoby Moore was 16 when shot and killed three years ago. His alleged killer was 15.
X’Zavion Johnson was rebooked Tuesday in preparation for a case status conference before Judge Greg Beard.
Johnson, now 18, was charged with murder in the second degree when initially arrested in May 2021.
The charge was amended to manslaughter, to which the teenager pleaded not guilty in August of that year.
A pre-trial conference date was set as the district court struggled with Covid-created issues.
Johnson in the interim was booked on a criminal damage charge in October 2021 and on a battery allegation a year later.
When booked Tuesday his bail was set at $522,000.
