Smith's trial date still not set
to bring her alleged killers to justice continues for at least another month.
The news came during yesterday's monthly arraignment session in the Supreme Court.
Justis Smith will have to wait until next month to find out when he will go on trial for the murder of 17-year-old Rebecca Middleton at Ferry Reach, St.
George's in July 1996.
The Crown is currently appealing a Court of Appeal ruling that banned it from prosecuting Kirk Mundy on the charge of murder as well.
In January, Mundy was indicted on a murder charge via a voluntary bill despite the fact that he had already pleaded guilty to being an accessory after the fact and was serving five years imprisonment for the offence.
The indictment was challenged but a Supreme Court ruling gave the Attorney General the go-ahead to prosecute Mundy for murder.
However, the Court of Appeal overturned the decision and said the Attorney General could not proceed with the charge against Mundy.
Now the Attorney General has applied to take the matter to the Privy Council in London.
Yesterday, Smith's lawyer Archibald Warner expressed concerns over lengthy delays in getting his client's case to trial.
Mr. Justice Ward adjourned the matter until August 3.
