Mangione\u2019s lawyers requested the delays because they argued the tight turnaround would make it impossible to prepare adequately for both trials.<\/p>\n

The scheduling order filed by US Judge Margaret Garnett said the decision was made \u201cin light of the… decision in the defendant\u2019s state court case to adjourn the state trial to September 8, 2026\u201d.<\/p>\n

Defendants in the United States can be tried at both the state and federal level for the same crime, although the charges tend to differ, as they do for Mangione.<\/p>\n

In New York court, Mangione is charged with murder. In federal court, he is charged with interstate stalking.<\/p>\n

Mangione has denied all charges.<\/p>\n

If convicted in either court, he faces life imprisonment without parole.<\/p>\n

Mangione was arrested five days after the shooting, at a McDonald\u2019s in the state of Pennsylvania \u2013 some 370km from the crime scene.<\/p>\n
