Jonathan Majors’ Domestic Violence Trial Delayed Again

The Creed III star's trial was supposed to start today, but that's not what happened in a NYC courtroom

deadline.com

Almost six months after Jonathan Majors was arrested in New York City on domestic violence charges, the start of the Creed III actor’s trial on the matter was today pushed yet again.

A very short hearing Wednesday determined that another hearing will now be held on September 15 to set a new trial date — in theory.

After numerous delays, today was supposed to be the actual start of the actor’s trial on the misdemeanor charges stemming from the incident in and around his Chelsea apartment on March 25. Though he was the one who called 911 back in the spring, the Kang the Conquer actor is looking at up to a year behind bars if found guilty on the claims prosecuted by Manhattan D.A. Alvin Bragg’s office.




To that end, Assistant District Attorney Kelli Galaway told Judge Rachel S. Pauley this morning that the prosecution were ready for trial. However, defense lawyers stated in court that there were “deficiencies” in discovery that still needed to be addressed.

Unlike the last hearing on the matter on August 3, when Harlem actress Meagan Good was present with Majors in person at the 100 Centre Street courtroom, the 33-year-old actor appeared virtually today before Judge Rachel S. Pauley in the Lower Manhattan hearing. The actor said little beyond short responses to the judge on his understanding of matters. Majors’ lawyers Priya Chaudhry and Seth Zuckerman were in the courtroom for the defense, as was the Assistant D.A. for the people.

Last month, it was Assistant D.A Galaway who told another judge that “the people are not ready for trial today.” Seeing the matter punted yet again, Galaway stressed the need for more time for more discovery in the matter.

Led by NYC-based lawyer Chaudhry, Majors’ defense team has adamantly insisted from the jump the actor is “completely innocent” and a victim of a “witch hunt” due to “the racial bias that permeates the criminal justice system.”

The defense team has made repeated efforts to turn the spotlight on to the character and motivations of the 30-year-old woman who was in the apartment with Majors on March 25. On the scene that night, NYPD officers reported the now ex-girlfriend of Majors’ suffered “minor injuries to her head and neck” from the incident. Notwithstanding a litany of proclamations and predictions by Chaudhry’s office in the months since, not to mention leaked video footage of the woman out clubbing that weekend, the ex-girlfriend in question has not been arrested by the police.




While prominently featured in a return to his villainous Kang role in the just released trailer for the second season of Marvel’s Loki on Disney+, premiering Oct. 6, the WME-repped Majors’ once rocketing stardom has dramatically dulled in the months since his arrest and initial arraignment. Dropped suddenly in April by managers 360 Entertainment and PR team the Lede Company (as Deadline exclusively reported), Majors has seen ad campaigns and film roles fall away in quick succession.

Additionally, even as one arm of the Disney empire maintains Majors is on board for Loki and the next phase of Avengers movies, the loud talk of an Oscar nomination for his Magazine Dreams performance has gone silent as the town awaits the outcome of the domestic violence case. Snapped up by Disney’s Searchlight Pictures not long after the intense Elijah Bynum scripted and directed bodybuilding drama debut at this year’s Sundance Film Festival, Magazine Dreams still has a December 3 release date.

If either of these brothers read the article they'd know the prosecution was ready to begin today and the defense asked for more time.

It doesn't matter, the prosecution has been playing games for months over some misdemeanor charges that they keep "rewritting". At this point they need to just drop the charges.

That's cool but it's literally not what happened today. Ain't nothing wrong with the facts.

“deficiencies in discovery" could still mean the prosecution "rewrote" some stuff again...aka changed their side of the story AGAIN.

And all this is over misdemeanor charges at this point. All the actual violent claims were thrown out months ago. They just fightin to fukk his reputation up at this point.

Doesn’t change ANYTHING I said. But you tried to sound smart, yet failed.

[Apollo Creed]

Entire prosecution should be stripped of their licenses

 

[HARLEM AL]

This is what happens in NY. A lot. They know its bullshyt and dont have a case. They want to drag this out as long as possible. maybe to get a bullshyt plea instead of saying they were wrong. this is how they do shyt.

Again?


I tell you what's gonna happen, the case is gonna get dropped, but Majors will not be seen as innocent because the case never went to trial.

Not exactly

Based on the article, it seems like the defense sent a deficiency letter or statement which is basically means the evidence wasn’t in good shape or sufficient enough and more than likely it wasn’t responded to.

So for them to begin the proceedings without the letter being addressed would have been foolish if they believe there is something flawed in the evidence gathering.

That’s why it was delay. There’s still housekeeping to be done before they can go thru the court process.
