LAS VEGAS (AP) -- Trial is being postponed for a 19-year-old and a co-defendant accused of killing a Las Vegas mom in a neighborhood shootout in February.
A Clark County District Court judge said Tuesday too many pretrial matters remained unresolved to begin trial next Tuesday for Erich Milton Nowsch Jr. and 27-year-old co-defendant Derrick Andrews.
Nowsch and Andrews have pleaded not guilty to murder and other charges.
Nowsch is accused of shooting from a car with Andrews driving, fatally wounding Tammy Meyers outside her home.
Defense attorneys Martin Hart, for Andrews, and Conrad Claus and Augustus Claus, for Nowsch, say they haven't gotten the complete police file in the case.
They also need time to challenge prosecution experts before they testify.
But the defense attorneys say they want the trial to start as soon as possible.
