A 15-year-old boy accused of killing the Universal co-founder is scheduled to be committed to stand trial next month, according to his lawyer. Court proceedings have been delayed and adjourned multiple times while the teen undergoes psychiatric assessment. The reporting from multiple outlets says the case is expected to proceed after the completion of the evaluations that are being used to inform the legal process. The lawyer’s statements indicate the adjournments are procedural and tied to the mental health assessment of the accused. No additional details about the alleged circumstances of the killing are provided in the accounts reviewed. The articles also do not describe any changes to the charge since the matter began. The next step in the proceedings is the committal, after which the matter would move into the trial stage if it proceeds as scheduled.
