Two murder trials scheduled for Halifax later this year have been knocked off course by the search for new lawyers.
Devlin Tyson Glasgow and Owen Patrick Nelson appeared separately by video in Nova Scotia Supreme Court Thursday morning to discuss their cases.
Glasgow is charged with first-degree murder in the 2013 death of Matthew Thomas Sudds. His body was discovered alongside Africville Road near the Bedford Basin on Oct. 14, 2013.
Another man, Ricardo Jerrell Whynder, was convicted of second-degree murder in Sudds s death, but that conviction was overturned on appeal. Whynder is awaiting a second trial.
