A preliminary hearing for the trial of George Huguely has been set for Jan. 21.
Huguely is charged with the homicide of fellow University student and lacrosse player Yeardley Love, who was found dead in her apartment last May.
Charlottesville General District Court Judge Robert Downer, Jr. will hear arguments about whether there is enough evidence to certify the trial to be heard by the Circuit Court, Charlottesville General District Court Clerk Mary Alice Trimble said.
Cameras will be prevented from entering the courtroom, according to the Daily Progress. Downer denied a media request for such amid fears such media exposure could complicate the search for an untainted jury.
The trial has been set for 1 p.m.
