A hearing on key motions filed by attorneys for two former pharmacists charged with second-degree murder has been rescheduled to Dec. 17.
Lawyers for Glenn Chin and Barry Cadden have asked Circuit Court Judge Michael P. Hatty to overturn the decision of a Michigan district court judge who ruled that there was probable cause to believe the two defendants were guilty of 11 counts of second degree murder.
A hearing on the motions had been scheduled for tomorrow, but will instead be held at 8:30 a.m. on Dec. 17.in Livingston Circuit Court.
Cadden and Chin have been charged with second degree murder in the deaths of 11 Livingston County residents who died in the 2012 fungal meningitis outbreak.
Cadden was president and part owner of the New England Compounding Center, the company blamed for the outbreak. Chin was a supervising pharmacist at NECC.
The company shipped thousands of vials of contaminated medications to Michigan and some 20 other states.
