Overview
- The August date was set to accommodate a co-defendant’s defense schedule, according to reporting from Rolling Stone’s Nancy Dillon.
- Three co-defendants have asked to sever their cases, and Durk’s attorneys say he would seek an earlier trial if those motions are granted.
- Durk remains held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Los Angeles and maintains a not guilty plea.
- Prosecutors allege he paid associates in 2022 to target rapper Quando Rondo in retaliation for King Von’s 2020 killing, citing a Los Angeles gas-station attack that left Rondo unharmed and killed his cousin Lul Pab.
- Earlier trial dates across 2025 and early 2026 were postponed after the defense requested additional time to review extensive discovery.
