Court hearing from 5/8/20 thru 5/11/20 reference post #17 here:
CA - Madalyn "Maddie" Slater, 1, murdered, thrown off cliff, Palm Desert, 7 May 2020 *dad arrested*

5/12/20 Update: Slater plead not guilty via video arraignment hearing. Slater is being represented by a public defender, Gregory Henderson. A criminal protective order is in place until May 12, 2023, & Slater is not allowed to communicate with the surviving victims, including the woman. Slater is scheduled to return to court July 31 for a felony settlement conference, a routine court appearance to discuss a case. Hall said he expects the case “to proceed as normally as it would” during the coronavirus pandemic, which has hindered many cases from moving forward.
7/31/20 Update: Next hearing on 10/2/20.

Okay - I see it does say "INM" - so going to assume that means "inmate". Maybe the jail site is just gliching today!

The INF stands for Indio felony.
The INM stands for Indio misdemeanor.
I don't realize anything that says he's in custody but I can't imagine he's not.

What happened at the hearing on 4/30?

No idea - I just tried googling & only coming up with 2020 articles over here.

We will have to wait for @Mica - to let us know IF there is something in the court site that says something about the last hearing. And Mica I will need the "hearing" type i.e. pretrial, motions, etc. TIA!

I only have access to the jail site - and here is his next hearing date:
