Prosecutors want to pursue the death penalty in the case, but the Supreme Court ruling handed down last week raised questions about whether a death sentence would hold up legally.
During a hearing Tuesday, Orange County Circuit Judge Renee Roche granted the prosecution’s motion to delay the trial against Saint-Simon, which was set to start in March.
The trial is now scheduled for late July to allow for the Florida legislature to address the Supreme Court decision.
