Bob Bashara faces an Aug. 19 preliminary examination for the murder of his wife, Jane, in their Grosse Pointe Park garage.
The date for the probable-cause hearing was set Tuesday morning by Judge Kenneth King of 36th District Court in Detroit at a scheduling conference.
Bashara, who is in prison, did not attend the hearing but was represented by court-appointed attorney Mark Procida, who appeared. Also in attendance at the brief hearing was assistant Wayne County prosecutors Lisa Lindsey, Robert Moran and a third assistant prosecutor.
Procida said afterward the volume of the evidence in the case necessitated the three-month delay. Bashara waived his right to a preliminary examination within 14 days of his arraignment.
The case involves 15 law enforcement agencies in six states, nearly 300 witnesses and more than 5,000 pages of documents.
Bashara previously was represented by Mark Kriger, who could still be retained by Bashara.
Whether he hires another attorney is entirely up to him, said Procida, a St. Clair Shores native.
