A Chinese tourist charged with manslaughter over the death of a Sydney beauty clinic owner will not face trial until next year.
Jie Shao, then aged 33, was working at the Medi Beauty Laser and Contour Clinic in inner-city Chippendale in August 2017 when she allegedly administered a local anaesthetic and breast fillers into Jean Huang.
The 35-year-old went into cardiac arrest and was immediately rushed to hospital in a critical condition where she died two days later.
