A Supreme Court judge yesterday postponed a sentencing hearing in a murder trial at the request of the defense.
A jury last month convicted Edney Burrows, 27, and Andre Dieujuste, 28, of the September 13, 2008 murder of Jason Smith.
According to the evidence, Smith got into an argument with the convicts over whether they could park in front of his property.
Prosecution witnesses suggested that Smith was intoxicated when he started the confrontation.
The jury rejected the lesser charge of manslaughter and convicted both men of murder.
Prosecutor Jillian Williams is not seeking the death penalty.
The sentencing hearing is now scheduled for October 1.
Elliot Lockhart represents Burrows and Christina Galanos represents Dieujuste.
